Sometimes We're Kids

She's my lover, she's my wife

She can sparkle in the morning light

The phone rings and she'd got to go

Leaves me in her afterglow

We're paying bills and fixing cars

The dust settles and here we are

We live our lives the best we can

I'm glad that she's my friend

Sometimes we're kids, running through the park like we always did

Aim for the sky in a worn leather swing sometimes we're kids

And sometimes we're kids, make sure and step on the acorn lids

Changing the words to whatever we sing-sometimes we're kids

Remember how we were clever

Make a day last forever

On our bikes we'd find a way to use up all of a Saturday

Forget the car we can walk

So much to see on every block

With just a smile you let me know that time can still go slow

Sometimes we're kids, they caught us kissing on the Mandell bridge

See the horse running in the clouds-sometimes we're kids

Sometimes we're kids, in the dewberry patch with our fingers red

The fourth of July and we're lost in the crowd-sometimes we're kids
