A hundred years from now you'll know the difference
Between a world that does you wrong and bad decisions
I have tried to run the clock and help you learn that
But I know now that you're gone and you're not coming back
But in the meantime I know
You'll go round saying that I was no good to you so
I'd be a fool to cry
But I'll sing you one last song before the sun sets
About all the ways I tried, and all our missteps
Would've liked to say goodbye
But you walked right out of my life
And I'll sing you one last song and wonder why
A hundred years ago when we first locked eyes
We were kids up on the coast where the seagulls cried
I chased you on the beach and climbed the mountain
Now the sandcastles we built have started drowning
Now that you're gone I know
You'll go round saying that I was no good to you so
I'd be a fool to cry
But I'll sing you one last song before the sun sets
About all the ways I tried, and all our missteps
Would've liked to say goodbye
But you walked right out of my life
And I'll sing you one last song and wonder why
