Turns Out

Lyrics

"Hold up... one picture." "Nah... you blinked." "One more..." "One day we'll wish we could come right back..." Verse 1 Snapped it, posted it, never looked back then, Just another Friday with our favorite friends. Windows down and the music loud, Nobody trying to impress this crowd. Cold drinks raised as the sun dipped low, Didn’t have a plan, just somewhere to go. Funny how the moments we almost miss… Turns out this is livin’. [Pre-Chorus - Bass enters | Light kick | Build] Funny how you never really know, You’re already living what you’ll miss the most. Chorus One day we’ll be talking about these nights, Smiling like they’re still tonight. We thought forever was somewhere ahead… Turns out this is livin’. Every little laugh, every memory we post, One day they’ll remind us what mattered the most. So don’t wish these moments away somehow… The good old days are right here now. [Verse 2 - Full groove] Bonfire burning, somebody grabbed a guitar, Everybody singing like they all knew the words. Missed our turn but nobody cared, Rolling the windows down, cool night air. No perfect plans, no place we’d rather be, Just making another memory we couldn’t see. Funny how the smallest things we do Turn into the stories that carry us through. [Pre-Chorus - Bigger build] You can’t save time for another day, So let’s spend this one all the way. Chorus One day we’ll be talking about these nights, Smiling like they’re still tonight. We thought forever was somewhere ahead… Turns out this is livin’. Every little laugh, every memory we post, One day they’ll remind us what mattered the most. So don’t wish these moments away somehow… The good old days are right here now. [Bridge - Strip everything back | Acoustic only | Phone vibration] (Phone buzzes) “Five years ago today…” My phone lit up, and there we were, Frozen in a Friday we’d almost forgot. Same old smiles… same old sky… Funny how one little picture Can take you right back. (Pause) We didn’t know we were making memories… We just thought we were making Friday night. [Final Chorus - Biggest lift | Stacked harmonies | Gang vocals] Now we’re talking about those nights, Smiling like they’re still tonight. We thought forever was somewhere ahead… Turns out this was livin’. Every little laugh, every memory we post, Now they remind us what mattered the most. Yeah, we were looking for someday somehow… The good old days were right here now. Turns out this was livin’. [Outro - Acoustic guitar fades] (Friends laughing softly) “Same time next Friday?” (Camera shutter) Yeah… Turns out this was livin’.
