cardigan

Vintage tee, brand new phone
 High heels on cobblestones
 When you are young, they assume you know nothing
 
 Sequin smile, black lipstick
 Sensual politics
 When you are young, they assume you know nothing
 ♪
 But I knew you
 Dancin' in your Levis
 Drunk under a streetlight, I
 I knew you
 Hand under my sweatshirt
 Baby, kiss it better, I
 And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
 Under someone's bed
 You put me on and said I was your favorite
 ♪
 A friend to all is a friend to none
 Chase two girls, lose the one
 When you are young, they assume you know nothin'
 ♪
 But I knew you
 Playing hide-and-seek and
 Giving me your weekends, I
 I knew you
 Your heartbeat on the High Line
 Once in 20 lifetimes, I
 And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
 Under someone's bed
 You put me on and said I was your favorite
 ♪
 To kiss in cars and downtown bars
 Was all we needed
 You drew stars around my scars
 But now I'm bleedin'
 'Cause I knew you
 Steppin' on the last train
 Marked me like a bloodstain, I
 I knew you
 Tried to change the ending
 Peter losing Wendy, I
 I knew you
 Leavin' like a father
 Running like water, I
 And when you are young, they assume you know nothing
 But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
 I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
 The smell of smoke would hang around this long
 'Cause I knew everything when I was young
 I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
 Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
 I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
 And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
 And I knew you'd come back to me
 You'd come back to me
 And you'd come back to me
 And you'd come back
 And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
 Under someone's bed
 You put me on and said I was your favorite
