We swore we'd talk everyday
The morning that I packed up
And drove away
Your laugh reminded me of home
But a laugh is not the same
When it's over the phone
We were running on empty
The calls barely helping
It's maddening how distance
Can make feelings strained
All those miles apart
Left us scared from the start
What had once felt so happy felt strange
Each second made a melody
Minutes formed symphonies
The months that we shared
Fillеd with wonderful memories
All that we had
Turned to all we had lost
I'm just the kid that you loved
When the timing was off
I saw your mom at the store
I put on a smile
And then I went for the door
Cause I heard you found someone new
And I am not nearly as happy as I was with you
We were running on empty
The calls barely helping
It's maddening how distance
Can make feelings strained
All those miles apart
Left us scared from the start
What had once felt so happy felt strange
Each second made a melody
Minutes formed symphonies
The months that we shared
Filled with wonderful memories
All that we had
Turned to all we had lost
I'm just the kid that you loved
When the timing was off
I'm just the kid that you loved
