Once I was lost
in the backseat of my best friend's car
Was down on myself
started building walls around my heart

And it's funny how we can slip
so far from the roots that make us who we are, but
Sometimes you need to fall in the dirt
'cause it's the journey that makes this life what it's worth

I met her when I was face down in the mud
And I'll admit, I was a little too drunk

But I saw the light in her face
the love in her heart and the way she made
One of my darkest days turn
to a memory of grace
as she kissеd me and said
Boy I think you'll be okay

Then shе looked at me
And the world just slipped away
And I knew we could be, something
If I wasn't hiding
and she wasn't running away

Oh
But we run from whispers of love like thunder, 'cause
Oh
Our hearts've been weathered down to embers
But the sound of her voice that morning
made me want to face the storm again
So this could be the story
of how I broke my heart or how we fell in love

Now I think about her in the morning sun
And I feel my walls start to come undone

We're just, two kids dancing in reverie
holding hands pretending that this could forever be
More than just a single night
of twenty-something lust raging in the moonlight

But when she looks at me
The world just slips away
And I know we could be, something
If I wasn't hiding and she wasn't running away

Oh
But we run from whispers of love like thunder, 'cause
Oh
Our hearts've been weathered down to embers
But the sound of her voice that morning
made me want to face the storm again
So this could be the story
of how I won her heart and how we fell in

How we fell in love, how we fell in love
Oh how we fell in love, love, love
MM

I'm pretty good at make-believe
But my heart just never seems to let me
Play for thrills but I'm scared of the chills that
Would shake my bones if she knew what I really think

When she looks at me
The world just slips away
And I know we could be something
