Jack Johnson – Love Song No. 16 lyrics

When you were a little girl
When you were an ocean away from me
Didn't know what I wanted yet
But you were already listening to The Pixies

When we were a little shy
When you were still an arm's length away from me
Didn't know what I wanted yet
But you were already reading Beat poetry

When we were a little free
When we were seven seas away from anything
Finally knew what I wanted then
But you were already my best friend
Yeah, you had already become my best friend

When you would teach geometry
When we were both living off of your salary
I wanna thank you for not kicking me out
I wanna thank you for letting me live in a house
I wanna thank you for letting me live in a house

And finally we made a family

Make a little home then
We'll fill it up with children
And never mind the rest it's all just
Irrelevant if we're just stardust
This dusty old world won't rest and
These dusty little kids keep stretching out
Well, just like the time

When you a little middle-aged like me
When we were already fifteen love songs deep
You give me too much love so I blame you
Well here's another love song for you
You give me too much love, what can I do?
Well here's another love song for you
Just another love song for you
