[Verse 1]
Don't write me no more letters
My mailbox is full of bombs
Between you and the crooks on my block
I don't remember the good times
I wasn't there when you were kind
And my wife has some dogs in our yard
[Pre-Chorus]
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 lions, lovers in combat
Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
There are no reasons to believe
I buried my faith in another plot
With your heart and your clothes when I find
That I don't feel you or recall
I'll put your bones out in the yard
For someone else to be called and called by
Don't write me no more letters
My mailbox is full of bombs
Between you and the crooks on my block
I don't remember the good times
I wasn't there when you were kind
And my wife has some dogs in our yard
[Pre-Chorus]
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 lions, lovers in combat
Faded like your name on those jeans that I burned
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
There are no reasons to believe
I buried my faith in another plot
With your heart and your clothes when I find
That I don't feel you or recall
I'll put your bones out in the yard
For someone else to be called and called by
