Matt Nathanson - Beginners Lyrics

I used to memorize you we'd stay in bed all day
I used to lose my mind when u whispered my name

used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
Used to burn so bright
Used to spend the night
And used to never get enough
We used to laugh so easy
We used to give em hell
You end up killing all the best parts, baby trying to protect yourself
Used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
I used to burn so bright
Used to fill the sky
And used to never get enough
Before the world slammed us shut
Before we knew way too much
Didn't worry about what we didn't understand swam out so far didn't see land
Before the brain got involved
When it was heart and that's all
Close your eyes and try to remember
When we were beginners
It's all imagination
Most things are just pretend meet me in san francisco we can dream it up again
Used to get lost in the songs that i used to sing used to get caught in the rush
Used to burn so bright
Used to fill the sky
I used to never get enough
Before the world slammed us shut before we knew way too much

We didn't worry about what we didn't understand swam out so far didn't see land
Before the brain got involved
When it was heart and that's all
Close your eyes and try to remember when we were beginners
