lyrics

Verse 1
Looking back I try to remember who I was then
Those were the days when I was just a blank page
With broken number two pencils trying to write this story down

Pre-chorus
We wrote song lyrics on canvas shoes
We wore these lyrics like protective armor
As we walked through these halls
As we walked through these high school halls

Chorus
I’d been dreaming of this kind of love
I’d been dreaming of the love in a Weepies song
Singing I’ve gotta have you I gotta have you
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
But I hadn’t met her yet

Verse 2
Looking back I try to remember who I was then
I look at that girl in the photo
Wearing clothes like a costume
Trying to hide from everyone’s stares

Pre-chorus
We wrote song lyrics on canvas shoes
We wore these lyrics like protective armor
As we walked through these halls
As we walked through these high school halls

Chorus
I’d been dreaming of this kind of love
I’d been dreaming of the love in a Weepies song
Singing I’ve gotta have you I gotta have you
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
I gotta have you, I gotta have you
But I hadn’t met her
I hadn’t met her yet

Bridge
One of these days I’ll find the girl
One of these days I’ll be singing these love songs to her
But I hadn’t met her yet

We wrote song lyrics on canvas shoes
We wore these lyrics like protective armor
As we walked through these halls
As we walked through these high school halls
