"When We Had Nothing" lyrics

"When We Had Nothing"

Let's put the mattress on the floor
And drink the wine out of a bottle
Let's get drunk and just make out
Like we just met each other

Or tell me something new
I didn't know about you
I'm so in love, two floors up, the Christmas lights, the fire escape and that dumpster view

Cause it was really magic
Before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the life that we imagined
We didn't know the meaning
Back when we were dreaming
We couldn't touch them yet
But it was so much fun believing

We were really something, something
Back when we had nothing

Let's be too scared to check the mail
Cause we know all the bills are red
Pretend there's no words of liable
And never go to bed

Cause it was really magic
Before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the life that we imagined
We didn't know the meaning
Back when we were dreaming
We couldn't touch them yet
But it was so much fun to reach them

We were really something something
Back when we had nothing
Nothing
Nothing

I'm thankful for how far we've come
But baby it was really something
Like magic
Before the real thing happened
Before we had the things and all the life that we imagined
We didn't know the meaning
Back when we were dreaming
We couldn't touch them yet
But it was so much fun to see them

Yeah we were really something something
You and me were really something something
Back when we had nothing
Nothing
