  • i used to memorize you we'd stay in bed all day
    i used to lose my mind when u whispered my name

    used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
    used to burn so bright
    used to spend the night
    and used to never get enough
    we used to laugh so easy
    we used to give em hell
    you end up killing all the best parts, baby trying to protect yourself
    used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
    i used to burn so bright
    used to fill the sky
    and used to never get enough
    before the world slammed us shut
    before we knew way too much
    didn't worry about what we didn't understand swam out so far didn't see land
    before the brain got involved
    when it was heart and that's all
    close your eyes and try to remember
    when we were beginners
    it's all imagination
    most things are just pretend meet me in san francisco we can dream it up again
    used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
    used to burn so bright
    used to fill the sky
    i used to never get enough
    before the world slammed us shut before we knew way too much

    we didn't worry about what we didn't understand swam out so far didn't see land
    before the brain got involved
    when it was heart and that's all
    close your eyes and try to remember when we were beginners Writer/s: HILLARY LEE LINDSEY, LORI MC KENNA, MATT NATHANSON
