lyrics

Life happened
You’re standing there
Trying not to think about
The million things you want to say

Somehow you know
You should get out
But your heart is screaming so loud
It took you by surprise

All you want is to reach for her hand
When you know you should be home instead

Days have passed
And now it’s months
It gets hard to say goodbye
When it’s just that easy

Even though
You can’t promise
Anything that you can’t give
You still want her near

All you want is to reach for her hand
When you know you should be home instead
You both know you must remain silent
Still in your head you’re reaching for her

Just kids
At least that's what we were
It seems so far away now

Just kids
Do you remember? Everything seemed easier

It all goes too fast, way too fast
It’s just so much to take
Now my guts tell me to run away, far away
Where would I go without you?

Just kids
Do you remember? Everything seemed easier
