Album: Metro Station (2007)

Wish We Were Older



I wish we were older
I wish we were older
I wish we were older

Keep your body moving, girl
The beat is thumping
Go ahead and let them talk
Their words mean nothing

I know you're scared
But don't leave this place
Just turn around
And let me see your face

And now you're crying
And you hold me
And you whisper in my ear

Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older
Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older

I wish were older

Tonight we'll touch
And the won't know
I know you're dying
To take off your clothes

Just trust in me
I'll never run away
You kiss my lips
And you taste my pain

And when I'm pushing
And I'm moving
Somehow you manage to say

Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older
Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older

Just take my hand, I'll never let go
Just take my hand, I'll never let go
(But I love you and I need you)
(Now we're dying and we're crying)
Just take my hand, I'll never let go
Just take my hands, I'll never let go
(But I kiss you and I touch you)
(And you hold me close and scream at me and say)

Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older
Whoa, oh, whoa
I wish we were older

But, don't cry now
And, don't cry now
