lyrics

Gone on our backs
Through the grassy meadow golf course
And that was enough to make us laugh and laugh
Like we always did

Gone in the air
Out of breath and leaves in our hair
Took it out on whoever was there
Whatever poor kid

Oh, the things we didn’t know

Gone in the heat,
We hike our skirts up over our knees
Bare legs in 100 degrees
On a riotous night

Lost in the mess
An open mouth to cry or confess
Too young to know the truth of this
But too drunk to try and fight

Oh, the things we didn’t know

And it was so much better that way
Much better that way
Better that way.

And it was so much better that way
Much better, and ten years later I won’t remember
I’ll try my hardest but there forever
The voices they will stay

And it is so much better that way.
