It was Love in the 90s


We can live in little boxes in the hills
baby that's what I call the  life
Cheap champagne thrills
Skin sticking to the fake leather backseat of your car drunk on your sweet sweat
Up all night waffle house coffee
Lost in admiration,  hanging on your dimestore philosophy 
This love smells like vinyl
 flannel shirts in the sunset 
walking through the knee high grass
We never got to sit high on that hillside, every time I turned around you got further away
