Kids Lyrics by Emily Kinney

Expired Love (Reissue)

2013

[Verse 1]
I'm a little bit drunk, you're a little bit stoned
I'm a little bit restless, we're both alone
Tonight, tonight
A blue buzz in the dark, a message in my ear
I'm pulling on my jeans and waiting for you to get here
Tonight, tonight
[Chorus]
Forget the day you've had, forget the loves you've lived
Oh, you and I are experts at pretending to be kids
Wash off all your grass stains, I'll pull off my shoes
Let's love like we are kids, all shiny and new
[Verse 2]
Babies have wrinkles and scars and tear stains
They're not afraid to cry when they're in pain
Babies and us could be the same
So tell me all your troubles, just clear out your head
Then let's play hide and seek inside my bed
[Chorus]
Forget the day you've had, forget the loves you've lived
Oh, you and I are famous for pretending to be kids
Wash off all your grass stains, I'll pull off my shoes
Let's love like we are kids, all shiny and new
[Bridge]
Chutes and ladders, a game of chess
Connect the dots upon my neck
Climb the stairs and take a chance
Pretend we're at some high school dance
The night will last and last and last
And kiss me like you're not real sure
Lead my hands 'cause, baby
I've never done this before
[Chorus]
Forget the day you've had, forget the loves you've lived
Oh, you and I are famous for pretending to be kids
Wash off all your grass stains, I'll pull off my shoes
Let's love like we are kids, all shiny and new
