lyrics

We were just two kids doin’ what kids did we never had a clue
With guitars in our hands we started up bands we did what we had to do
Bought us a van traveled ‘cross the land we were always on the move
From bar to bar never got real far but we always played it cool
Now tell me what am I supposed to do
Now that I’m playin’ without you

In the house that was haunted another band was started and it was started right on cue
You and Jess made such a pretty mess on your hands you got a tattoo
And all your books were read and you made up beds for all the bands that were travelin’ thru
And you were just a kid so why can’t kids live why can’t we start over anew
Cus there’s some things you can’t undo
Now we’re just living without you

In South Carolina there ain’t nothing finer now I know this much is true
You gave it your best better than the rest I should be resting there with you
Cus there ain’t no growin’ in knowing where you’re goin’ would ya look what we grew into
Now that you’re gone we still hear your songs we know them all the way through
But we still don’t have a clue
Cus we’re lost without you
