[Verse 1]
Is this the street we grew up on?
The number seven bus we'd run for
The alleyway we were always scared of
When the sun was low

[Verse 2]
Worn-out jeans and faded tees and Nike shoes
Staying out way after our curfew
Will we ever get back to being how we used to?
If I keep my eyes closed, I could draw it all back from memory, oh

[Chorus]
We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
And for all this time, I never understood
Now I know I wanted you

[Verse 3]
We carved our names, played 10p games, smoked rollies
And I would hang on every word you told me
Both our phones went dead, no money left
We'd walk each other home when the sun was low

[Chorus]
We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
And for all this time, I never understood
Now I know I wanted you
[Bridge]
Oh, do you remember all of the words that you said?
'Cause I remember everything that we ever did
Do you remember all of the words that you said?
'Cause I remember and I can't forget

So I keep my eyes closed and I draw it all back from memory, oh
Do you even remember me?

[Chorus]
We were throwing stones, skipping over the truth
Now I know I wanted you
(I know, I know, I know I wanted you)
And for all this time (Oh), I never understood
Now I know I wanted you
(Now I know, I know, I know, I know)
Know I wanted you
