Lifetimes Songtext
von The Bird and the Bee

We′d sit at your place
Sometimes we'd write three or four songs a day
We′d burn a CD
To pass around intellectual property

Cut and paste the cover
Artwork by a friend
Little girls with nets chasing butterflies

All those hours on planes
Thinking how life was so strange
Meet you at night
Queue up for the Japanese Breakfast line

That time Mike lost your pedals
You were so annoyed
You never let him touch your gear again

We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We had lifetimes before


We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We keep coming for more

We walked around the festival
Check out the bands that we didn't know
I didn't sing so well that day
You said not to worry, it was a great show

Never gild the lily
It was perfect as it was
We were all so stupid and perfect

We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We had lifetimes before

We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We keep coming for more

La la la
La la la
La, la la, la la, la la
La la, la la la


We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We had lifetimes before

We were so young
We were so young
But not that young
We keep coming for more
