[Verse 1]
Can't believe I still avoid the East Side
Even though I know that you don't live there now
Lately you're the only thing on my mind
And I can't stop my self on drivin' by your house

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, every time I hear our song it kind of hurts me still
And, ooh, even after all this time, I kinda miss you still
I'm wondering

[Chorus]
Do you even think about it?
The way that we changed the world
And don't it make you sad
That we'll never be kids again?
No, we'll never be kids again
Tell me how you live without it
Did somеbody change your world
And now you don't look back?
'Cause we'll nеver be kids again
No, we'll never be kids again
No, we'll never, never, ever, ever, ever, ever

[Verse 2]
Livin' out of suitcases in hotels
Drinking way too much and talking through the night
Really wish I didn't know you so well
Wouldn't be so hard to leave the past behind

[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, every time I hear our song it kind of hurts me still
And, ooh, even after all this time, I kinda miss you still
I'm wondering

[Chorus]
Do you even think about it?
The way that we changed the world
And don't it make you sad
That we'll never be kids again?
No, we'll never be kids again
Tell me how you live without it
Did somebody change your world
And now you don't look back?
'Cause we'll never be kids again
No, we'll never be kids again
No, we'll never, never, ever, ever, ever, ever

[Bridge]
Mmm, mmm
No, I, I, I, I
I'm, I'm
Mmm, mmm

[Chorus]
Do you even think about it?
The way that we changed the world
And don't it make you sad
That we'll never be kids again?
No, we'll never be kids again
Tell me how you live without it
Did somebody change your world
And now you don't look back
'Cause we'll never be kids again
No, we'll never be kids again
No, we'll never, never, ever, ever, ever, ever

Sam Smith was born on 19th May 1992 and grew up in a rural village on the border of Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire, the nearest town being Bishops Stortford. They’re the oldest of three siblings and are said to be close to their younger sisters. Their mother is a successful City of London trader and their father a stay-at-home dad who brought up the children.

Smith showed an early talent for singing, and their parents responded by arranging singing lessons from the age of eight with professional jazz singer and songwriter, Joanna Eden. At the early age of seventeen, they left school to pursue their dream, living in a small one-bed flat and working in a London pub, but ended up isolated and beset by loneliness.

Sam knew they were gay, they said, for as long as they could remember. They suffered bullying at school and were shocked to find that even in London—close to gay communities—they were subjected to homophobic attacks. These negative experiences, combined with an inherently emotional nature, inform their songwriting and delivery. The soulful, beautifully rich tone of their voice and the subject of the lyrics ‘speak’ to many people and have led to their success.
