[Verse 1: Brian Oblivion, Madeline Follin]
I met you on the sidewalk
I hoped you were the way you were before
Don't give into the small talk
Don't give up on the things that we adore

Oh yes you know I like that
I like it like the way we were before
Still got some things to work at
These days just walking around here's such a chore

[Chorus]
We both need it all the more
Just the way we were before
We both need it all the more
Just the way we were before

[Verse 2: Madeline Follin, Brian Oblivion]
I'm pleased to see that old walk
Skipping all the cracks on the concrete
These days you're walking real tall
Or tall as someone like you've ever seen

I've been around a few blocks
I chased away the cobwebs in the street
I wound up all the old clocks
So we can say we never skipped a beat
[Chorus]
We both need it all the more
Just the way we were before
We both need it all the more
Just the way we were before

[Refrain]
'Cause we like that
Just like the way we were before
It's all mixed up
But that's just what we had in store

[Outro]
You can't fix that
You can't fix that
You can't fix that
You can't fix that
