Oh, oh
Oh, oh
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 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’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’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
Oh, oh
And I remember that fight, 2:30am
You said everything was slippin’ right out of our hands
I ran out cryin’ and you followed me out into the street
Brace myself for the goodbye, cause that’s all I’ve ever know
And 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 best thing that’s ever been mine
Hold on, you’ll 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
(Hold on) do you believe it?
(Hold on) We’re gonna make it now
(Hold on) I can see it
(Yeah, yeah) I can see it now
Oh, oh
