We were young and
you were brave and
I never knew how to say it to your face.
We used our feet till we
Wore them thin and we
Found a tree just to carve our names right in.
So everyone remembered.
That all along,
It was you and me
All along
We had fun and we
Used to joke about
Getting old and how our
Faces might age
And you said,
“When I’m gone you should
Write a song about
How we laughed and
All the things we’ve done.
So that you remember.
That all along,
It was you and me
All along”
I’m talking with myself,
But now I’m someone else.
It’s the saddest thing to say,
How I miss your face.
When all along,
It was you and me for oh so long
But all along,
I guess the end was bound to come
