2 Kids - Alice Merton

I met you at a bus stop, told me your name

Said you wanna make it big, wanna play in the game

Well, I never really thought much of it back then

Dinners and dates took our lives to shape

We built the house, didn’t know if they’d stay

Well, I never saw you quit

Not now, not back then

And you stayed by me

When the storms came down and the fear got real

You stayed by me

And all we’ll ever be is 2 kids (2 kids)

Making our way through this great, big city

2 kids (2 kids)

Watching the lights 'cause they look so pretty

2 kids

I never would’ve guessed we’d end up like this

Oh, oh, oh

I never would’ve guessed it

Like brother and sister, we kept so tight

Didn’t let the others try change our minds

We never let them win

Not now, not back then

And when the going got rough and the pain felt strong

I cried inside but you stayed so calm

And you never let them win

Not now, not back then

And you stayed by me

When the storms came down and the fear got real

You stayed by me

And all we’ll ever be is 2 kids (2 kids)

Making our way through this great, big city

2 kids (2 kids)

Watching the lights 'cause they look so pretty

2 kids

I never would’ve guessed we’d end up like this

Oh, oh, oh

I never would’ve guessed it

All the boxes and the stage lights

All the words and all the late nights

All the faces, all the silence

All the panic, all the crying

I met you at a bus stop, told me your name

Said you wanna make it big, wanna play in the game

I met you at a bus stop, told me your name

Now you’re like a brother

Now you’re playing the game

And all we’ll ever be is 2 kids (2 kids)

Making our way through this great, big city

2 kids (2 kids)

Watching the lights 'cause they look so pretty

2 kids

I never would’ve guessed we’d end up like this

Oh, oh, oh

I never would’ve guessed it
