Vintage tee, brand new phone
High heels on cobblestone
When you are young they assume you know nothing
Sequin smile, black lipstick, sentual politics

When you are young they assume you know nothing
But I knew you, dancin' in your Levi's
Drunk under the streetlight
I knew you, handed you my sweatshirt

Baby, kiss it better
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someones 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 nothing
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 twenty 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 I 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 losin' Wendy, I
I knew you leavin' like a father, runnin' like water
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
Chasing shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me when 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
