We Did It When We Were Young |
| Don’t write me no more letters, my mailbox is full of bombs |
| Between you and the kooks on my block |
| I don’t remember the good times, I wasn’t there when you were kind |
| And my wife had some dogs in our yard |
| And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty gun |
| We were strangers many hours and I missed you for so long |
| When we were liars, lovers in combat |
| Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned |
| But I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
| I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
| There are no reasons to believe, I buried my faith in another plot |
| Where your heart and your claws will not find |
| And I don’t feel you or recall, I put your bones out in the yard |
| For someone else to be called and caught by |
| And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty gun |
| We were strangers many hours and I missed you for so long |
| When we were liars, lovers in combat |
| Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned |
| But I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
| I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
| I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
| I am older now |
| And we did it when we were young |
