Mine




You were in college, workin’ part time, waitin’ tables left a small town, never looked back. I was a flight risk, with a fear of fallin’ Wonderin’ why we bother with love if it never lasts.I say, “Can you believe it?” as we’re lyin’ on the couch,the moment I could see it .Yes, yes, I can see it now .You remember, we were sittin’ there, by the water you put your arm around me for the first time you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter you are the best thing that’s ever been mine.Flash forward and we’re takin’ on the world together and there’s a drawer of my things at your place,you learn my secrets and you figure out why I’m guarded you say we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes 
But we got bills to pay, we got nothin’ figured out when it was hard to take.Yes, yes, this is what I thought about.
Do you remember all the city lights on the water? You saw me start to believe for the first time you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter,you are the best thing that’s ever been mine 

And I remember that fight, 2:30 a.m. You said ‘everything was slippin’ right out of our hands,I ran out cryin’, and you followed me out into the street.Braced myself for the goodbye ,‘Cause that’s all I’ve ever known,then you took me by surprise you said:“I’ll never leave you alone” 

You said, “I remember how we felt sittin’ by the water and every time I look at you, it’s like the first time I fell in love with a careless man’s careful daughter.She is the best thing that’s ever been mine 


Completamente enamorada de la letra y video de esta canción.
