Something American Lyrics - Jade Bird

We knew each other when we were very young 

High school sweethearts, or something American 

Now we've become old I only see photos 

She's what I thought, something American 

Something American 

But you don't call me now 

And I don't think too much about you 

But when she's not around 

I can feel you're lonely 

Oh, I can feel you're lonely somehow 

I'm not nice like her 

Won't wear white like her 

Don't live life with the pages [?] 

No, I'm not perfect 

But then no one is 

We're all reaching for something American 

But you don't call me now 

And I don't think too much about you 

But when she's not around 

I can feel you're lonely 

I can feel you all night 

In my dreams I find 

The stars align [?] 

And it's you and I 

Oh, back in time, it feels so right 

But you don't call me now 

And I don't think too much about you 

But when she's not around 

I can feel you're lonely, oh 

You don't call me now 

And I don't think too much about you 

But when she's not around 

I can feel you're lonely, oh 

I can feel you're lonely somehow 

We knew each other when we were very young 

High school sweethearts, or something American
