Wish I Knew You In The 90's lyrics - The Cribs

I saw you in a video

But it's alright, cos now I know you

My only hope back then was living in fright

But if you saw me all those years ago

You'd probably laugh, and I wouldn't blame you

It's not like I was ever going anywhere, right?

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don't care

Cos it all went past me

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah I remember...

Running outside, cos you're panicking

In the silent, early evening

Scream her name but, she don't hear ya

You and your hopes lost in suburbia

Find her photos, pick a favorite

Obsess over it, till we make it

Have a freak out, throw a whitey

Wish I knew you in the 90's

I only have old videos

But it's alright, cos now I know you

Was your hair curly back then

Or am I just remembering something kinda wrong...

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don't care

Cos it all went past me

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah wish we could go back there

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah now I just don't care

Cos it all went past me

Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah I remember...
