How’d You Forget Us?

Nostalgias cheap and it gets the best of me

It's skin deep but a haunting memory

I try to forget you but you're permanent 

Somehow you've moved on but I'm stuck in cement

I guess you didn't know how to love

I guess you didn't care this much

All those memories of you, we'd stay up and talk in my room

I guess I didn't know it would fade

I guess you didn't feel the same

We'd laugh til it hurt, and cry til the sun would come up

How'd you forget us?

Chronic pain when you're away from me

Cheat the game, you played me faithfully

I heard you moved up North, I hope that it's cold

I'm still living down South, and moving on slow

We'd sneak a drink on your Mom's front porch

Avoid the noisy spots of my hallway floor

I always kept the window open

I never thought that time would close it

Next to the park where you taught me to drive

Our first kiss on the bench beside

This dashboard hears my confessions

I drive by still feel your presence

If I would've known it was the last time we'd intertwine

I would've held more tight
