Got a note in my phone
From christmas eve a few years ago
Full of words I'll never say

You sent a text the other week
Asking "R u mad at me? "
I played it down, like I always do
So many words I'll never say to you

I wanna be a little kid
(Is it too late to start this now?)
Turn it around, just like I thought you did

Read a book about it all
The patterns built into our bones
The only thing we've ever known

I find it strange that you don't see
All the similarities
I'd spell it out if you asked me to
So many words I'll never say to you

I wanna be a little kid
(Is it too late to start this now?)
Turn it around, I thought you did
(But the cycle repeats itself)
I think about what could have been
(If things had been different)
Turn it around, just like I thought you did

I wanna be a little kid
(Is it too late to start this now?)
Turn it around, I thought you did
(But the cycle repeats itself)
I think about what could have been
(If things had been different)
Turn it around, just like I thought you did
Like I knew you should
Like we still could
Like I wish you would
