[Verse 1]
Hand made break-up boxes
Old letters, I've still got them
I like to read 'em from time to time
High stake football games
The cool kids knew our names
Way back when that could make our night
[Pre-Chorus]
All that we knew, nothing
But we didn’t know it then
All that we knew, nothing
But we didn't know it when, we were
[Chorus]
Cryin' out our eyes in the bathroom
Sayin' that he don’t deserve you
Back when everything was a really big deal
Back whеn we were
Hiding stolеn wine like a tattoo
Caring who cared in high school
Back when everything was a first time feel
When something had to give
When we couldn't forget
The only thing I miss right now is
We only had to walk eight houses
[Post-Chorus]
Only thing I miss right now is
Only had to walk eight houses
Only thing I miss right now is
Only had to walk eight houses
[Verses 2]
Parties were the be-all end-all
We thought we were so mature
Even though my dad had to drive us
Photos in black and white
No sleep, oh yeah, we'd talk all night
Growing up's such a circus
[Pre-Chorus]
All that we knew, nothing
But we didn't know it when, we were
[Chorus]
Cryin' out our eyes in the bathroom
Sayin' that he don’t deserve you
Back when everything was a really big deal
Back when we were
Hiding stolen wine like a tattoo
Caring who cared in high school
Back when everything was a first time feel
When something had to give
When we couldn't forget
The only thing I miss right now is
We only had to walk eight houses
[Bridge]
I don't wanna know who I'd be
If I'd grow up without
All the scars and all the stories
You and me
[Chorus]
Cryin' out our eyes in the bathroom
Sayin' that he don’t deserve you
Back when everything was a really big deal
Back when we were
Hiding stolen wine like a tattoo
Caring who cared in high school
Back when everything was a first time feel
When something had to give
When we couldn't forget
The only thing I miss right now is
We only had to walk eight houses
[Post-Chorus]
Only thing I miss right now is
Only have to walk eight houses
Only thing I miss right now is
Only have to walk eight houses
