Testo When I Was Young - Nada Surf

Testo della canzone When I Was Young (Nada Surf), tratta dall'album Peaceful Ghosts (Live)

It's amazing how much time love saves you at first
When you rediscover your reason to work
And your aimless dreaming has found a target
And you normalize, and grief, all function return
Came home early, a quarter to two
I don't need more wine, I'm coming for you
We carry pictures in our pretend wallets
Of ourselves in heavily edited '70s
With better handwriting, and longer days at the park
And dinners with no drama, The Professor and Mary Ann
Came home early, a quarter to two
I don't need more wine, I'm coming for you
When I was young, I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
Now I've grown up, I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of
When I was young, I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
Now I've grown up, I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of
What was that world I was dreaming of?
What was that world I was dreaming of?
Late summer return, in this apartment, I lean out the window
Deals on regular shirts, same fried delights as last year, but more so
When I was young, I didn't know if I was better off asleep or up
Now I've grown up, I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of
What was that world I was dreaming of?
What was that world I was dreaming of?
Now I've grown up, I wonder what was that world I was dreaming of
What was that world I was dreaming of?
What was that world I was dreaming of?
