Without shame, two outfits then to my name
You´d end up in one when you´d stay
We had nowhere to go and every desire for going there

I heard once, it´s the comforts that make us feel numb
We´d go out with no way to get home
And we´d sleep on somebody´s floor and wake up feeling like a millionaire

Wish I had known it was now just turnin´ (We just got by)
Blamed for a world we had no power in (But we tried)
You and I had nothin´ to show (We didn´t know)
But the best of the world in the palm of our hands (Anything darllin´)

And darlin´, I haven´t felt it since then
I don´t know how the feelin´ ended

But I know being reckless and young
Is not how the damage gets done

One time we would want for nothin´ (One time we had it all, love)
We knew what our love was worth (When we had nothing)
Now we´re always missing something (I miss when)
I miss when we did not need much
Oh, if the car ran, the car was enough
If the sun shone on us, it´s a plus
And the tank was always filled up
Only enough for our gettin´ there

That first car was like wings on an angel (You flew away)

Before the whole wide world got too thin (From me then)
I swear goodwill kept up the engine
You were steerin´ my heart like a wheel in your hands (Turn back, darling)

And darlin´, I haven´t felt it since then
I don´t know how the feelin´ ended
But I know being reckless and young
Is not how the damage gets done

All I needed was someone
When the whole wide world felt young
All I needed was someone
When the whole wide world felt young
