Just Like It Was

[Verse 1]
It's 1999, I'm up in my room
Playing Nintendo and dreamin' about the things I'm gonna do
Lookin' out the window down the street
Little kid, big dreams
Young and so naive
Always thought that I would be

[Pre-Chorus]
Livin' in L.A. by the shoreline
Buy a nice car, drive up to the Northside
Floor seats by the courtside
And I wish I could go back one more time
You remind me of the things I love, everything I lost track of
When it's just us

[Chorus]
Everything is just like it was
Before life made us colder, uh
Everything is just like it was
Just like when we were younger, yeah
Everything is just like it was

[Verse 2]
Like it used to be
When the thought of love was still new to me
Before the weight of the world came down on me
When I thought I lost just what you found in me
And who woulda knew that you
Could make me smile the way you do?
Like those Saturday cartoons
You got me daydreaming in my room

[Pre-Chorus]
Like I'm livin' in L.A. by the shoreline
Buy a nice car, drive up to the Northside
Floor seats by the courtside
And I wish I could go back one more time
You remind me of the things I love, everything I lost track of
When it's just us

[Chorus]
Everything is just like it was
Before life made us colder, uh
Everything is just like it was
Just like when we were younger, yeah
Everything is just like it was

[Outro]
Everything is just like it was
Everything is just like it was
And it's just us
Everything is like it was
