wish i loved you in the 90s

You said you′d never lie
But you did it anyway
So how am I supposed to feel
When you said, “It’s so real,” to my face?
And you said you′d make a promise
But a promise never stays
So how am I supposed to act
When it’s just how it is nowadays?
And I swear
We kinda fell in love with the pain
And I’m scared
We don′t even know the right way

I wish I loved you in the ′90s
‘Cause I know that we would work
Say wrong place, wrong time, should′ve been alive
Bet it wouldn’t hurt
If I had loved you in the ′90s
Back when life wasn’t a blur
Say right guy, right vibe, wouldn′t have to try
Bet it wouldn’t hurt
If I had loved you in the ‘90s
If I had loved you in the ′90s

What happened to the guy
Picking up the girl?
And now you speed down the highway
And don′t care to say a word
In my head, it’s kinda dreamy
I imagine it with you
On the lawn, record on
Looking at the sky like ′92, oh

And I swear
We kinda fell in love with the pain
And I’m scared
We don′t even know the right way

I wish I loved you in the ‘90s
′Cause I know that we would work
Say wrong place, wrong time, should’ve been alive
Bet it wouldn’t hurt
If I had loved you in the ′90s
Back when life wasn′t a blur
Say right guy, right vibe, wouldn’t have to try
Bet it wouldn′t hurt
If I had loved you in the ‘90s
If I had loved you in the ′90s

Wish I loved you in the ‘90s
′Cause I know that we would work
Say wrong place, wrong time
Bet it wouldn’t hurt
