lyrics

We used to work at the coffee shop
screaming ‘we’ll never die’ at the top of our lungs
singing ‘baby we’re young’

We used to dine in the parking lot
where you popped a wheely in your mama’s car
singing ‘baby we’re young’ yeah

But that was in high school
and you haven’t changed
You know I still love you
But just not the same
You pull me in

Why do you do this to me?
We’re too old to be playing.
I’ve got a job for real this time
You’ve got to let go (you gotta let go)

Where did the time go?
We skipped class to hit the road
But we’re not kids anymore
We got to let go (we gotta let go)
We gotta let go
We gotta let go (we gotta, we gotta, we gotta)

I was all yours to call your own
But only on the weekends when no one's home
I didn’t know my worth, faking that this really works
'Cause this don't work, no.

But that was in high school
and you haven’t changed
You know I still love you
But not in the way

You pull me in, babe.

Why do you do this to me?
We’re too old to be playing.
I’ve got a job for real this time
You’ve got to let go (you gotta let go)

Where did the time go?
We skipped class to hit the road
But we’re not kids anymore
We got to let go (we gotta let go)
We gotta let go
We gotta let go.

Been sitting here clutching all these memories in my hands, memories in my hands.
See I forgot what life was like before met, before met.

Why do you do this to me?
We’re too old to be playing.
I’ve got a job for real this time
You’ve got to let go (you gotta let go)

Where did the time go?
We used to skip class to hit the road
But we’re not kids anymore
We got to let go, oh
We gotta let go
We gotta let go.
