When we met, you caught my gaze
A cold-ass night near the holidays
I couldn't find the nerve to just say something
Dark room, late night
I felt the warmth behind your eyes
Six years since then
With no idea this would happen
May have failed, but I had schemed
To get the girl who was in my dreams
I played my favorite songs and caught you humming
Dive bars, rock shows
The joy they bring will always grow
When I'm with you
I know you feel this too
'Cause all we ever wanted was to be a couple of kids
In an empty concrete jungle on a distant trip
Where the world had gone away
And you and me could play
We'd see all the lights and nobody could stop us
Just a couple of kids, leaning for a kiss
She's a queen in the modern day
And no one can tell what to say
She's a rebel and saint but you'll never hear me complain
Ice cold bong rips may feel good but they never hit
Like kissing you
Where I want to be when the night is through
'Cause all we ever wanted was to be a couple of kids
In an empty concrete jungle on a distant trip
Where the world had gone away
And you and me could play
We'd see all the lights and nobody could stop us
Just a couple of kids, leaning for a kiss
Even when we don't agree, I know you'll stay here with me
You're the only thing I need to get me to sleep
Even when we don't agree, I know you'll stay here with me
You're the only thing I need to get me to sleep
