Back When

作词 : Stella Kristiandatter

Back when we were broke and golden

Split one drink

Called it a feast

Laughing at the landlord’s warning

“Pay me someday

” “maybe next week”

Your shoes had holes

My car smoked prayers

We still drove it out of town

Windows stuck

Your hair in tangles

You said

“This is rich enough for now”

Take me back when

We had nothing but a worn-out sweater

Back when

Every little plan felt like forever

Back when

We could turn a Tuesday into legend

Yeah

I’d trade all this to feel

How it was back when

Back when all my shirts were wrinkled

We dressed up in our imaginations

You drew futures on receipts

Circled cities

Circled faces

We missed trains and called it magic

Got lost just to feel found

Kept our fears inside old journals

Said we’d read them when it calmed down

Take me back when

We had nothing but a worn-out sweater

Back when

Every little plan felt like forever

Back when

We could turn a Tuesday into legend

Yeah

I’d trade all this to feel

How it was back when

Funny how the numbers grow

But the colors fade

I got keys to bigger doors

Still think of that tiny place

Where the walls heard every secret

Where the floor knew every step

Tell me

Do you ever miss it

Or is it only in my head?

Take me back when

We had nothing but a worn-out sweater

Back when

Every little plan felt like forever

Back when

We could turn a Tuesday into legend

Yeah

I’d drop all this and run

Just to live back when again
