[Verse 1]
You’re on my parents’ porch again
Same old hoodie
Different hands
We laugh about that “break we took”
Like it was just a rerun joke
You trace my name on paper cups
Say
“College felt like giving up”
We’re only eighteen
Scared and loud
Still
You say my name like a vow
[Chorus]
We were kids last summer
Now you’re talking forever
In the back of your car
Engine humming like a prayer
You say
“Marry me someday
I don’t care how far away”
And my heart shouts
“Already”
Yeah
We’re young
But we’re back to always
[Verse 2]
Your hands still shake when you drive stick
I kiss your knuckles at red lights quick
You say
“My mom thinks it’s too fast”
I say
“She doesn’t know our past”
First date fries
That county fair
You won me some stuffed polar bear
We lost two years in different towns
Now you’re here
And time slows down
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Gold ring
Gum machine
You slide it on
I can’t breathe
Parking lot cathedral glow
Two cart returns
A busted phone
You say
“Not yet
But soon as we can”
We’ll share a name
A tiny van
I don’t need some diamond sky
Just your laugh
This stupid night
[Chorus]
