I think it was the fourth of that July
I remember looking in each other's eyes
Watching as the spark was fading
But neither one could say it
Ironically we laughed until we cried
The sun came up and then it got so quiet
I knew the end was getting closer
I thought we would grow old, yeah
But you
Will always have my heart, it's nothing new
Whenever I'm alone I try to look through our old photographs
Remember when we used to laugh
But I don't recognize us anymore
My momma told me
If you love someone you've got to set them free
But I guess that you're not coming back
I thought that we could beat the odds
And try to fix all of our flaws
But when you said you loved me
Oh you must have had your fingers crossed
The time goes by the scars no longer show
But underneath it all there's still this hole
Filled up with my second guesses
But I guess I've learned a lesson
That people in your life will come and go
But from the ashes something beautiful will grow
'Cause I'm happier than ever lately
I'm thankful for all you gave me
Oh you
Will always have my heart, it's nothing new
Whenever I'm alone I try to look through our old photographs
Remember when we used to laugh
But I don't recognize us anymore
My momma told me
If you love someone you've got to set them free
But I guess that you're not coming back
I thought that we could beat the odds
And try to fix all of our flaws
But when you said you loved me
Oh you must have had your fingers crossed
Ah ou, ah ou, ah ou
Must have had your
Ah ou, ou ah
When you said you loved me
Must have had your fingers crossed
