When we were young

Polaroid pictures of me as a teen with people I will never see
We change like flowers from a seed, sit beneath a willow tree
The wind carries a smell that reminds me of you and me back when you were my CC
Rose-tinted shades like I'm Doflamingo
When you spoke to me, all insecurities went out the window
Lose my appetite cause butterflies wanted to mess around
And I'd be lying if I said that you don't do this to me now, I can't complain, girl
You bring me back to the days when we were young
When all that mattered was our fears and having fun
I'm tired of living in a rush
You are my rest and I know that this is love
It used to be the surprise parties with hidden parking
Intoxicated off that barqies, smoking smarties
And disregarding what could come after it all
Like summer would never fall, like money was just a thing
Not scared of losing it all, like friends wouldn't abandon
And hearts wouldn't get broken in a time without drama
Certain gossip was still unspoken and loving was second nature
Easy like riding bikes, and when I look at your eyes it reminds me of simpler times
Your smile is all I need to see
Your voice lives in my mind and jogs my memory
It's in the way you speak to me
Your words hit different cause they got graceful seasoning
So used to copium but loving you comes easily
Like joy when I'm upset you surpass what I expect
Serendipitous duet like pennies we make sense
It's in your eyes I see my past and present
But will you be my future? Outmaneuver time
By my side, you and I, we can be together on this long road
Cause loving you never gets old
You bring me back to the days when we were young
When all that mattered was our fears and having fun
I'm tired of living in a rush
You are my rest and I know that this is love
So will you be my valentine, my valentine
I write to you from back in time, back in time
So will you be my valentine, my valentine
I write to you from back in time, back in time
You bring me back to the days when we were young
When all that mattered was our fears and having fun
