lyrics

I kept your picture in my wallet
When it fell off the dashboard
It was a reflection of a time
That we won't forget when we're old
And I still remember the donut shop
On that breezy April night
The drive thru was backed up to the highway
But you still wouldn't let me live it down

And I always thought that maybe we would grow old together
But you cut your ties and sewed your emotions where they were severed

You still have my t-shirt in your closet
From when you stayed the night
I fell asleep on the couch
After I carried you to my mattress
You woke up with a headache
And you said it must've been the alcohol
I cooked pancakes for breakfast
And what happened next we don't remember at all

20 years from now we'll see each other at a whole foods
You'll have a few kids dead beat jobs while I'm struggling to find my roots
It's so crazy to think how I could never be myself
But when I was holding you in my arms was all the world's wealth
So if you ever hear my songs on the radio
Just know that my love for you was never a joke
I'll skip the class reunion just to avoid the blame
But only because of the tears on your face
