Mine

Lyrics

 * You were in college working part time waiting tables
 * Left a small town never looked back
 * I was a flight risk with a fear of falling
 * Wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts
 * I say can you believe it?
 * As we're lying on the couch
 * The moment I could see it
 * Yes, yes I can see it now


 * Do you remember we were sitting 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'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 nothing figured out
 * When it was hard to take
 * Yes, yes, this is what I thought about


 * Do you remember we were sitting 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


 * And I remember that fight, 2:30 am
 * As everything was slipping right out of our hands
 * I ran out crying 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 sitting 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
 * Hold on, make it last
 * Hold on, never turn back
 * You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
 * You are the best thing that's ever been mine
 * Yes, yes do you believe it?
 * Yes, yes we're gonna make it now
 * Yes, yes I can see it
 * I can see it now
