you were in college working parttime waiting tables
left a small town and never looked back
i was a flight risk with a fear of falling
wondering why we bother with love if it never lasts
pre
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
pre
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 0 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
yeah yeah
do you believe it hold on
we’re gonna make it now hold on
and i can see it
yeah yeah
i can see it now see it now
