Playing house

We can´t keep playing house
With such a big world outside
How do we shut it out?
At a fork in the road
Should I stay or should I go?
I´ll keep the cat
Leave a spare under the mat
If you need to crash one day
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young
To play these grown up games?
Cause you know me too well
It´d be like me lying to myself
But I´m so scared to be alone
And go back to sleeping with the lights on
Cause I can be myself
Drunk or sober fat proactive poster
Wouldn´t it be nice
If we were older
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young
To play these grown up games
Some days I wanna take my chances
Not live so modernized
Some day I wanna be a Mrs.
But it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
So there go our future children´s names
I put the rest of us in a box in the closet
That I cannot open without getting full
Full of emotion
Because you know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young
To play
One day I wanna take my chances
Not live so modernized
One day I wanna be a Mrs.
But it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
With such a big world outside
How do we shut it out?
At a fork in the road
Should I stay or should I go?
I´ll keep the cat
Leave a spare under the mat
If you need to crash one day
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young
To play these grown up games?
Cause you know me too well
It´d be like me lying to myself
But I´m so scared to be alone
And go back to sleeping with the lights on
Cause I can be myself
Drunk or sober fat proactive poster
Wouldn´t it be nice
If we were older
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young
To play these grown up games
Some days I wanna take my chances
Not live so modernized
Some day I wanna be a Mrs.
But it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
So there go our future children´s names
I put the rest of us in a box in the closet
That I cannot open without getting full
Full of emotion
Because you know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
You know I loved you
Cause I know we swore forever
But it seems so far away
Don´t you think we´re just too young

One day I wanna take my chances
Not live so modernized
One day I wanna be a Mrs.
But it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
No it´s not yet quite right
