How It Went Down Lyrics

I was acting rich like

Everyone else did

I was acting well to do

If well to do means being good to you

I was acting in my element

And you in yours too

I was acting like

Every single night was like this



I am young and you are young

And we grow

Now you are young and it feels like

I've grown old

So take your time, my feeling 'round you

Can be so cold

Take your time, I'll see you somewhere

When seasons unfold



The setting is ready

I've saved you the best seats in the house

It's candle-lit, baby

I'm patiently waiting in the crowd

I would never ask about other nights

Only a fool would spoil it all

I would never ask about other nights

When I'm with you the memory is gone



And it's such a hot night

Let's say we step outside for some air

It's such a hot night

Let's say we make away somewhere

On the street the sound of our shoes

Between the buildings

On the subway the fluorescent lights

Can't change a thing



Because I am young and you are young and we grow

Now you are young and it feels like I've grown old

So take our time 'cause taking it here means taking me

home

Take our time 'cause taking it here means taking me

home

Take our time 'cause taking it here means taking me

home

Take our time 'cause taking it here means taking me

home
