The Gaslight Anthem - We Did It When We Were Young lyrics

Don't write me no more letters, my mailbox is full of bombs Between you and the kooks on my block I don't remember the good times, I wasn't there when you were kind And my wife had some dogs in our yard And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty gun We were strangers many hours and I missed you for so long When we were liars, lovers in combat Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned But I am older now And we did it when we were young I am older now And we did it when we were young There are no reasons to believe, I buried my faith in another plot Where your heart and your claws will not find And I don't feel you or recall, I put your bones out in the yard For someone else to be called and caught by And I cannot hold a candle for every pretty gun We were strangers many hours and I missed you for so long When we were liars, lovers in combat Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned But I am older now And we did it when we were young I am older now And we did it when we were young I am older now And we did it when we were young I am older now And we did it when we were young
