Ohh oh oh oh oh
You were in college working
part time waiting tables
Left a small town
never looked back
I was the flight risk
with the fear of fallin’
Wonderin’ why we bothered
with love if it never lasts
I say Can you believe it
As we’re lying on the couch
The moment I can see it
Yes yes I can see it now
Do you remember we were
sittin’ 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 learned
my secrets and you figure out
why I’m guarded
You say we’ll never make
my parents’ mistakes
But we’ve 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
Woah oh ohh
And I remember
that fight 2 30 AM
Cause everything was
slippin’ 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
And you took me by surprise
You said I’ll never
leave you alone
You said
I remember how we
felt sittin’ 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
Oh oh 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
Woah oh
Yeah yeah Do you believe it
Woah oh
We’re gonna make it now
Woah oh
And I can see it yeah yeah
And I can see it now
See it now See it now
