We wanted to remember everything that we'd forgotten We wanted to believe that we were not fading In the temple we were unfolding In the crooked shadow of the morning In the half light we saw, a window to the door Oh, oh We were just lonely kids Living in a faded town We were just lonely kids Just We were living in the moment, when the past became the present A memory unfurling, a simple truth returning In my mind I hear your laughing, through the pines I hear you calling And that little bird would say, I remember everything Oh, oh We were just lonely kids Living in a faded town We were just lonely kids Just Why did you come around here, knocking at my door? With your painted face, asking for more? In the temple we began to change We were all falling We were just lonely kids
