When We're Older Lyrics

(One, two, three, four...)

I guess I'll start off with, "I'm sorry"
But I know you'll never hear me
'Cause lately I've been really thinking
Maybe I was naive
'Cause when I stumbled over pictures
And all our broken humor
I remembered we were younger
And forever made us eager
I'm always eager in the winter

So I could never rid of these scars that decorate my back
'Cause yeah, things got bad but it wasn't always like that
There was beauty in all mistakes, wrong turns, and hearts turning black
'Cause when I hear your name I find comfort in all my heart attacks

So don't look at me like I'm a stranger
There was a time when we were closer
And if every ending has its reason
Maybe we can try out another season when we're older

Should I leave off with, "Maybe call me?" Or is that too much to be asking?
I just feel so f*cking stupid that we took it all for granted
Abandoned all the love we felt outside
Of all the useless fights and broken lines
I guess I lost my only appetite
'Cause now my stomach shakes the night
As I lay upon my freezing bedroom floor
Wondering why the hell I ever swore

So can you hear it in my voice cracks
Stutter over words that never seem to fit right
Always coming out bad?

Will we meet again when the mornings feel less colder?
And will she be my friend after all the nasty things I told her?
Darling, 'cause now we're older
And life is getting shorter
But with you it felt much slower
So baby be my acupuncture
Come on and rid me of your cancer
