Cardigan (triple j Like a Version) Lyrics by Something For Kate

2021

Vintage tee, brand new phone
High heels on cobblestones
When you are young
They assume you know nothing
Sequined smile, black lipstick
Sensual politics
When you are young
They assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Dancin' in your Levis
Drunk under a streetlight, ah, ah, ah, ah
I knew you
Hand under my sweatshirt
Baby, kiss it better, ah, ah, ah, ah
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favourite
A friend to all is a friend to none
Chase two girls, lose the one
When you arе young
They assume you know nothing
But I knew you
Playing hidе-and-seek
And giving me your weekends, ah, ah, ah, ah
I knew you
Heartbeat on the high-line
Once or twenty lifetimes, ah, ah, ah, ah
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put me on and said I was your favourite
To kiss in cars and downtown bars
Was all we needed
You drew stars around my scars
But now I'm bleedin'
I knew you
Steppin' on the last train
Mark me like a bloodstain, ah, ah, ah, ah
I knew you
Tried to change the ending
Peter losin' Wendy, ah, ah, ah, ah
I knew you
Leavin' like the father
Running like water, ah, ah
When you are young
They assume you know nothing
But I knew you'd linger like a tattooed kiss
I knew you'd haunt all of my what-ifs
The smell of smoke would hang around this long
'Cause I knew everything when I was young
I knew I'd curse you for the longest time
Chasin' shadows in the grocery line
I knew you'd miss me once the thrill expired
And you'd be standin' in my front porch light
I knew you'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
You'd come back to me
You'd come back
And when I felt like I was an old cardigan
Under someone's bed
You put on, and said I was your favourite
