Lyrics

Fifteen, I was shy,
You caught my eye,
It wasn't your looks,
But the way you made me fly.
Heart pounding in your arms,
Felt like I was home,
In a world so big,
I was never alone.

When we were us, we dreamed so wide,
Plans of a future, side by side.
Two cars in the driveway, kids in the hall,
In that big bed, we could have it all.
But now I’m lost, can’t find my way,
You slipped away, but my heart will stay.

Late-night talks, secrets we’d share,
I could see our life, every moment laid bare.
Thoughts of a cozy apartment,
Sunlight through the blinds,
A family we’d build,
Love that’s hard to find.

When we were us, we dreamed so wide,
Plans of a future, side by side.
Two cars in the driveway, kids in the hall,
In that big bed, we could have it all.
But now I’m lost, can’t find my way,
You slipped away, but my heart will stay.

Then silence fell, texts left unread,
Half a year without you, spinning in my head.
Saw you with someone, it cut me deep,
That stuffed animal, it’s a secret I keep.
Photos of us, they break me apart,
But I’ll never stop loving you with all my heart.

When we were us, we dreamed so wide,
Plans of a future, side by side.
Two cars in the driveway, kids in the hall,
In that big bed, we could have it all.
But now I’m lost, can’t find my way,
You slipped away, but my heart will stay.


So here I am, still holding on tight,
To all those memories that light up the night.
I wanted forever, but forever’s a game,
I’ll cherish our love, even if it’s not the same.
When we were us, it felt so right,
But I’ll keep loving you, through every lonely night.
