lyrics

My head has been cluttered up so badly for so long
With the scraps of muffled memories and the things I've done wrong
Like when we sat downtown at the old cafe
And stayed up past your curfew way too late
We made the most of every single day
We didn't realize what couldn't stay

You were the only missing pieces
In the picture of life after all these changes

Then again, I was misunderstanding the things that made me happy
I left a hole inside my chest for months after you left me

I let myself grow distant and cold
Numb with having ruined something gold
I was almost gone without a trace
But now I've filled that empty space

And I believed that it was you
That made the difference in every single thing that I do

You're a high point on my timeline
You remind me of the best times

I'm seeing that it's not you I miss so bad
It's the memories for which you came to stand
When we didn't have a care in the world
When it didn't cross our minds that we'd grow old
