Lyrics

[00:19.45] To answer a question
[00:20.83] It'll probably take more
[00:23.01] If you're already there
[00:24.70] Well then you probably don't know
[00:26.71]
[00:27.33] Well we were the people
[00:28.33] That we wanted to know
[00:32.01] And we're the places that we wanted to go
[00:36.46] It's hard to get hold of
[00:38.07] And hard to let go
[00:40.58] Always something we look for
[00:42.15] From the day we were born
[00:45.33] Instead we're the people that we wanted to know
[00:49.26] And we're the places that we wanted to go
[00:54.14] Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
[00:58.89] We're the places that we wanted to go
[01:03.45]
[01:11.08] Always asking a question
[01:12.01] And I don't want to know
[01:15.26] Like the wind across strings
[01:17.33] That had finally let go
[01:19.64] And the people you love
[01:21.52] But you didn't quite know
[01:24.14] They're the places that you wanted to go
[01:28.39] Bark at the neighbors
[01:29.33] And then bark at the dog
[01:33.01] Sniffing the wind
[01:34.39] Whimpering for someone to know
[01:36.02]
[01:37.02] But we were the people that we wanted to know
[01:39.96]
[01:41.26] And we're the places that we wanted to go
[01:44.64]
[01:46.33] Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
[01:49.02]
[01:50.14] Yeah we're the places that we wanted to go
[01:52.16]
[02:21.02] It was not the intention
[02:22.45] But we let it all go
[02:26.50] Well it messed up the function
[02:29.00] And sure fucked up the flow
[02:30.62] I hardly have people that I needed to know
[02:34.19] 'Cause you're the people that I wanted to know
[02:36.75]
[02:38.25] All this scrambling around
[02:39.94] Hunting high and then low
[02:42.75] Looking for the face love
[02:44.44] Or somewhere to go
[02:46.26]
[02:47.39] I hardly have places that I need to go
[02:51.07] 'Cause you're the places that I wanted to go
[02:56.01] Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go
[02:59.19]
[03:00.13] Yeah you're the places that we wanted to go
[03:03.48]
[03:05.92] You're the people that we wanted to know
[03:11.48] Shouldn't have to ask
[03:14.24] You shouldn't have to ask
[03:17.23] 'Cause we are your real place
