Is this the street we grew up on?
The number seven bus we'd run for
The alleyway we were always scared of
When the sun was low

Worn-out jeans and faded tees and Nike shoes
Staying out way after our curfew
Will we ever get back to being how we used to?
If I keep my eyes closed, I could draw it all back from memory, oh

We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
And for all this time, I never understood
Now I know I wanted you

We carved our names, played 10p games, smoked rollies
And I would hang on every word you told me
Both our phones went dead, no money left
We'd walk each other home when the sun was low

We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
And for all this time, I never understood
Now I know I wanted you

Oh, do you remember all of the words that you said?
'Cause I remember everything that we ever did
Do you remember all of the words that you said?
'Cause I remember and I can't forget

So I keep my eyes closed and I draw it all back from memory, oh
Do you even remember me?

We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
(I know, I know, I know I wanted you)
And for all this time (Oh) , I never understood
Now I know I wanted you
(Now I know, I know, I know, I know)
Know I wanted you
