The Younger Me Lyrics

I wish I could tell the younger me how to do it

I wish I could tell the younger me not to screw it up so bad

Laying here in this bed with a woman who exceeds all the expectations

It's a really good feeling to know we've been doing it right for a long time now

Thinking back on the way that I was and the way that I handled relationships

Shake my head and I shiver to myself

I can't believe what an asshole I could actually be

I wish I could tell the younger me how to do it

I wish I could tell the younger me not to screw it up so bad

But the younger me is just a memory from chapter three

He's history

Now I don't feel like I've got all the answers but I've made some realizations

It's more than ok in the right lane driving along on the highway now

Used to be I was so in a rush chasing the cheap sensations

So many years of not thinking too clearly

I can't believe what a numbskull I could actually be

I wish I could tell the younger me that he's got me

I wish I could tell the younger me how to not become so mad

With every inconvenience or each annoying unsolvable mystery

I wish I could tell the younger me how to do it

I wish I could tell the younger me not to screw it up so bad

But the younger me

He's been left behind in this story

Back in chapter three

He's history

All those mistakes he made for me

It's time to let him be

Time to let him be

Let him be

Let him be

Let him be

Let him be
