lyrics

If you knew then what you know now
Would you have told me then
That you loved the taste of my tongue in your mouth
That you loved the way my skeleton
Felt under my skin in your hands
Would the street wars, straight men
Cowboy and Indians
Mean everything you thought they did
I just wanted us to be good

If you knew what you know now
Would you still have played the same cards
Guess we're just too different
We always seemed to know that
You knew I was needy
Knew I would need you
But I can't write this again
I just wanted us to be good

Still here we are kicking and screaming
Two fucked up creatures in the world
We've been forgotten
You know you can depend on me
Why won't you just depend on me

If you knew what you know now
Would you have told me then
That you love the taste of my tongue in your mouth
And that you loved the way my skeleton
Felt under my skin in your hands
Would the street wars, straight men
Cowboys and Indians
Mean everything you thought they did
I just wanted us to be good

I just wanted us to be good
I just want us to be good
