I was in college
working part time waiting tables
Left to small town never looked back
I was the flight risk with the 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 can see it
Yes yes, I can see it now
Do 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 taking on the world together
And there is a drawer of my things at your place
You learned my secrets
and you figured out why I’m bothered
You said we’ll never make my parents’ mistakes.
But we’ve got bills to pay
We’ve got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take yes yes
This is what I thought about
Do 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
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
Woah oh oo
And I remember that fight 2:30 AM
´Cause everything was slipping right
out of my hands
And I ran out crying
and you followed me out into the street
Raised myself for a goodbye
Cause that’s all I’ve ever known
And you took me by surprise
You said ‘I’ll never leave you alone
You said
“I remember how we felt sitting about the water
And every time
I look at you is like the first time
I fell in love with careless
man’s careful daughter
She is the best thing that’s ever been mine”
Oh oh
Make it last
Oh oh
Never turn back
You made a rebel of a careless
man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Woah oh
Yeah yeah…Do you believe it ?
Woah oh
We’re gonna make it now.
Woah oh
And I can see it yeah yeah
And I can see it now, See it now, See it now
