Kids Lyrics - Ben Rector

I saw a photograph of ten years back 

It's you and I, we're standing in the rain 

Somewhere outside Atlanta and I think my 

Twelve-seat van is right there out of frame 

This was before I knew my way around Los Angeles 

Before I ever cared about nice neighborhoods 

We were driving through the night 

Sleeping on hotel floors 

And thinking that we had it good 

We were kids back then, thinking we would live forever 

We were kids back then 

We were wild and free, taking on the world together 

We were kids back then 

That's how we're always gonna be

I used to know a friend on my timeline 

Who had lately been on my mind 

We were close as blood 

And if we sat down for a drink I think we'd forget 

all the stupid reasons we lost touch (we lost touch) 

It was just because 

We were kids back then, thinking we would live forever 

We were kids back then 

You and me 

We were wild and free, taking on the world together 

We were kids back then 

That's how we're always gonna be 

All you got to do is blink your eyes and the years go by like that 

They fly right past 

I don't want to wait to realize everything that you and I 

Already have 

Photos 

Five-thirty in the morning and we're awake again 

You are holding baby Jane 

I lean in to take a picture when it hits me 

In twenty years I will look back and say 

We were kids back then, thinking we would live forever 

We were kids back then 

We're so young and free, taking on the world together 

We were kids back then 

That's how we're always gonna be 

We were kids back then, thinking we would live forever 

We were kids back then 

You and me 

We were wild and free, taking on the world together 

We were kids back then 

That's how we're always gonna be 

That's how we're always gonna be 

Oh, that's how we're always gonna be
