Nada Surf When I Was Young Lyrics

it's amazing how much time love saves you at first
when you rediscover your reason to work
and your aimless dreaming has found a target
and normalize and greed all function return
came home early, a quarter to two
i don't need more wine, i'm coming for you
we carry pictures in our pretend wallets
of ourselves in heavily edited seventies
with better handwriting and longer days at the park
dinner with no drama, the professor and marianne
came home early, a quarter to two
i don't need more wine, i'm coming for you
when i was young, i didn't
know if i was better off asleep or up now i've grown up, i wonder what was that world i was dreaming of
when i was young, i didn't know if i was better off asleep or up
i've grown up, i wonder what was that world i was dreaming of
what was that world i was dreaming of
what was that world i was dreaming of
regular shirt, same last year, more so
when i was young, i didn't know if i was better off with sleep over
i've grown up, i wonder what was that world i was dreaming off
what was that world i was dreaming of
what was that world i was dreaming of.
