My Morning Jacket - Two Halves lyrics

rate me

Remember when you were seventeen

You goin' crazy, you know what I mean

It wasn't that long ago

In the grand scheme of things

It wasn't that long ago

You think you're so much smarter now

Twenty one everything stays in place

Forty one some things start to fade

Well when you're so young, you wanna be older

And when you're older, you want the body you have now

I believe in a perfect world

You rule your own universe

The only gun you'll ever need will be in your brain

The only gun you'll need is in your hands

You want this now you want that

Can't have it all you should enjoy what you have

But I know what you want

Well I know what you want

Well I know what you want, you want the better of two halves!

Well I know what you want

Well I know what you want

Well I know what you want, you want the better of two halves!
