Lyrics

(Ah-ah)

(Ah-ah)

Do you recall the days at your old place

Playing with Troll dolls to scare the kids away? (Ah-ah)

My closet was a time machine, yours a stage

I wish we told those little girls they're gonna be okay

Still picture it all in my mind

Makin' the campfire out of broken flashlights

Jealous of your high tops 'cause someone stole mine

Wish somebody woulda told me that we'd be alright (Ah-ah)

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget (Ah-ah)

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget

You musn't change the laws

Tall, bold, black, color purple hair

Yeah, definitely

Do you remember all the cartoons at midnight?

Like the one about the crass-humoured French guy

And what about you, Mr. Poetry?

And what about all that we built in just a couple weeks?

Talkin' 'bout all of our fears through a cracked screen

Pickin' little fights over fallin' asleep

I wish you knew I loved you when you knew you loved me

Really wish I knew you sooner than my twenties

(Ah-ah)

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget (Ah-ah)

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

I'm a product of the who's, when's and how's

Those who let go and those who stuck around

I wish somebody woulda told me I'd be here now

'Cause this kinda life is one to sing about

Oh yeah

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget (Ah-ah)

My kinda time's meant to carelessly spend

And my kinda nights are the ones that don't end (Ah-ah)

My kinda fun doesn't make any sense

And my kinda love, you won't ever forget

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

My kinda love you, won't ever forget

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

(Ah-ah)

Wish somebody woulda told me that we'd be alright
