A Girl In The Seat Right Next To Me
Folder:
The Present Junior year was unbelievable
A girl in the seat right next to me
And sometime between the hard laughs and fights
I could see love in our foreseeable future
Man, I learned so much that year
It’s two kids learning to care for one another
It’s “American Child” and “Complicated”
It’s the first kiss and breath on the window
That reminds me of the winter I fell in love for the first time
Senior year came and went so fast
With both of us knowing the other was gone
In a few months it was up to us to make it on our own
We could both see that the road was splitting
And we thought it was best to let go
It’s two kids learning to let go of one another
It’s “Red Ragtop” and “You’ll Think of Me”
It’s the last look I took in my rearview mirror
That reminds me of that summer I left home still in love
We thought it was best at the time to let go
But if I could do it all over again
Instead of just saying “I love you.”
I’dve said “Please don’t let go... of my hand.”
It’s two kids learning to care for one another
It’s two kids learning how to let go
It’s you and me falling in and away from love
That reminds me of when I began to live for someone other than me
Junior year was unbelievable
A girl in the seat right next to me
