23

[Intro]
23, 23
23, 23

[Verse 1]
Say that I don’t know enough
Say that I’m not old enough
All of that’s such boring stuff
Can I enquire
Why do you care so much?
And would you come right back to me
If I was more like 23?
That’s something I would love to be
So while it’s quiet
Should you ignore your desires

[Chorus]
I know that you want me (I'm something that you)
Dream about me longing (I'm something that you dream about)
You’re looking for something
But you won’t come right back to me
'Cause I’m not 23

[Verse 2]
Remember, it was simpler then
You and me just holding hands
And you didn’t seem to understand
The depths of my mind
So we could kiss inside the silence
But why’d you have to draw a line
For someone as mature as I?
Who knows just what they want in life
Baby, I’m your age in another place
Let’s cross all dimensions
'Cause I want my love this way

[Chorus]
I know that you want me
Dream about me longing
You’re looking for something
Not me
'Cause I’m not 23
I know that you want me (I'm something that you)
Dream about me longing (I'm something that you dream about)
You’re looking for something
But you won’t come right back to me
'Cause I’m not 23

[Post-Chorus]
I know I’m not (23,23)
But I know everything
Bigger shoes, bigger dreams
If I wasn’t 17, I could have anything
Anything

[Chorus]
I know that you want me
Dream about me longing
You’re looking for something
Not me
'Cause I’m not 23
I know that you want me (I'm something you)
Dream about me longing (I'm something that you dream about)
You’re looking for something
But you won’t come right back to me
'Cause I’m not 23
(23, 23, oh)
