Verse 1

It's been a while since I told you anything

I don't keep secrets so I'll say exactly what I mean

These tear-soaked pages, all these words coming out of me

I see new breath giving life to what I need

Chorus

And I don't know where the time went

And I've been feeling like I used to when you first told me you loved me

And you looked into my eyes

That's when I realized we'd be here for a while

Verse 2

The days have been coming so fast, I can't even breathe

Folded inside my mind is a memory of the paper heart cutouts

That hold my words of love to you

Chorus

And I don't know where the time went

And I've been feeling like I used to when you first told me you loved me

And you looked into my eyes

That's when I realized we'd be here for a while

Here for a while

Bridge

And it seems that the days have faded

And we're here after a year

And everyone said the odds were against us

But we're still in love after all this time

Chorus

And I don't know where the time went

And I've been feeling like I used to when you first told me you loved me

And you looked into my eyes

That's when I realized we'd be here for a while

Here for a while, here for a while

Here for a while
