When We Had Nothing

[Verse 1]
Let's put the mattress on the floor
And drink the wine out of the bottle
Let's get drunk and just make out
Like we just met each other
Well, tell me somethin' new
I didn't know about you
I'm so in love, too froze up
Christmas lights, the fire escape
And that dumpster view

[Chorus]
'Cause it was really magic before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the lifе that we imagined
We didn't know thе meanin' back when we were dreamin'
We couldn't touch them yet, but it was so much fun believin'
We were really somethin', somethin'
Back when we had nothin'

[Verse 2]
Let's be too scared to check the mail
'Cause we know all the bills are red
Pretend there's no world tomorrow
And never go to bed

[Chorus]
'Cause it was really magic before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the life that we imagined
We didn't know the meanin' back when we were dreamin'
We couldn't touch them yet, but it was so much fun to reach them
We were really somethin', somethin'
Back when we had nothin'
Nothin' (Nothin')

[Bridge]
I'm thankful for how far we have come
But, baby, it was really somethin'

[Chorus]
Like magic before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the life that we imagined
We didn't know the meanin' back when we were dreamin'
We couldn't touch them yet, but it was so much fun to see them
Yeah, we were really somethin', somethin'
You and me were really somethin', somethin'
Back when we had nothin'
Nothin'
