[00:07.01]Vintage tee brand new phone
[00:10.75]High heels on cobblestones
[00:14.37]When you are young they assume you know nothing
[00:21.66]Sequin smile black lipstick
[00:25.42]Sensual politics
[00:29.11]When you are young they assume you know nothing
[00:36.34]But I knew you
[00:38.32]Dancing in your Levi's
[00:40.35]Drunk under a streetlight
[00:43.93]I knew you
[00:45.78]Hand under my sweatshirt
[00:47.58]Baby kiss it better
[00:51.19]And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed
[00:58.70]You put me on and said I was your favorite
[01:05.84]A friend to all is a friend to none
[01:09.76]Chase two girls lose the one
[01:13.43]When you are young they assume you know nothing
[01:20.69]But I knew you
[01:22.65]Playing hide-and-seek and
[01:24.50]Giving me your weekends
[01:28.20]I knew you
[01:29.86]Your heartbeat on the High Line
[01:31.76]Once in twenty lifetimes
[01:35.58]And when I felt like I was an old cardigan under someone's bed
[01:42.99]You put me on and said I was your favorite
[02:03.07]To kiss in cars and downtown bars
[02:06.80]Was all we needed
[02:10.76]You drew stars around my scars
[02:14.21]But now I'm bleeding
[02:19.78]Cause I knew you
[02:21.73]Stepping on the last train
[02:23.50]Marked me like a bloodstain
[02:27.30]I knew you
[02:29.06]Tried to change the ending
[02:30.85]Peter losing Wendy
[02:34.61]I knew you
[02:36.46]Leaving like a father
[02:38.36]Running like water
[02:41.96]When you are young they assume you know nothing
[02:47.32]But I knew you'd linger like a tattoo kiss
[02:51.09]I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
[02:54.78]The smell of smoke would hang around this long
[02:58.57]Cause I knew everything when I was young
[03:02.11]I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
[03:06.00]Chasing shadows in the grocery line
[03:09.60]I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
[03:13.19]And you'd be standing in my front porch light
[03:16.60]And I knew you'd come back to me
[03:20.85]You'd come back to me
[03:24.34]And you'd come back to me
[03:27.96]And you'd come back
[03:33.74]And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
[03:37.85]Under someone's bed
[03:41.10]You put me on and said I was your favorite
