Beginners

I used to memorize you
We'd stay in bed all day
I used to lose my mind
When you whispered my name

Used to get lost in the songs that I used to sing
Used to get caught in the rush
Used to burn so bright
Used to spend the night
And used to never get enough

We used to laugh so easy
We used to give 'em hell
You end up killing all the best parts, baby
Trying to protect yourself

Used to get lost in the songs that I used to sing
Used to get caught in the rush
I used to burn so bright
Used to fill the sky
And used to never get enough

Before the world slammed us shut
Before we knew way too much
Didn't worry about what we didn't understand
Swam out so far didn't see land
Before the brain got involved
When it was heart and that's all
Close your eyes and try to remember
When we were beginners

It's all imagination
Most things are just pretend
Meet me in San Francisco
We can dream it up again

Used to get lost in the songs that I used to sing
Used to get caught in the rush
Used to burn so bright
Used to fill the sky
I used to never get enough

Before the world slammed us shut
Before we knew way too much
We didn't worry about what we didn't understand
Swam out so far didn't see land
Before the brain got involved
When it was heart and that's all
Close your eyes and try to remember
When we were beginners
