Simple Then

Girl do you remember the first time you held my hand

If we only knew back then

Boy do you remember all the things that you had planned

You tried to make me understand

Take us back to when time moved slowly

Spinning around at the high school dance

Making out in the back of your van

It was like nothing mattered when

Steeling the keys to your daddy's truck

Out all night till the sun came up

It was like nothing mattered when

Love was simple then

It was the best moment of our lives when I got down on my knee

Yeah love's a crazy thing

We thought we'd last forever and we'd start a family tree

Who'd thought it would be like

Boy meets a girl

Girl falls in love

Boy breaks her heart

Cause we were spinning around at the high school dance

Making out in the back of your van

It was like nothing mattered when

Steeling the keys to your daddy's truck

Out all night till the sun came up

Yeah, do you remember when

Love was simple then

Did you mean what you said

Or were we living a lie

It was meant to be for the rest of our lives

Spinning you round at the high school dance

Making out in the back of your van

It was like nothing mattered then

And we wondered how we fell apart

Love left us here with broken hearts

How in the hell did it all disappear

Yeah, maybe one day it will all make sense

How a love like ours did come to an end

And memories are all we have

Love was simple then

Yes it was, it was simple then
