Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Pulled a book from the top shelf

Dust cloud, had me choke, felt twelve

Pages flip like a clip in my hand

Something folded where the chapters end

Old ink, little hearts in the margins

My name in a swirl, you was starin'

Summer date scribbled right on the spine

August heat, first time you were mine (yeah)

[Chorus]

Found your love letter in an old book

Whole room spun on a quick hook

Thought I left that feeling way back then

But the words pulled me right back in

Every little line like a flashbang

First crush feeling in my chest rang

Didn’t think the past could hit this good

’Til your love letter fell out of that wood (oh)

[Verse 2]

You wrote, “call me when your hands stop shakin’”

Mine still do, guess they never stopped quakin’

You drew us on the back, two stick kids

On a bench by the store where we used to sit

I hear you laugh through the crossed-out sentences

Inside jokes, tiny teenage recklessness

You swore we'd run far, far from this town

We just grew up and slowed that down (yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]

Found your love letter in an old book

Whole room spun on a quick hook

Thought I left that feeling way back then

But the words pulled me right back in

Every little line like a flashbang

First crush feeling in my chest rang

Didn’t think the past could hit this good

’Til your love letter fell out of that wood (yeah)

[Bridge]

Are you somewhere still saving my notes?

Or laughing at the way that we wrote?

If I called, would you sound the same?

Or would you even know my name?

[Chorus]

Found your love letter in an old book

Whole room spun on a quick hook

Thought I left that feeling way back then

But the words pulled me right back in

Every little line like a flashbang

First crush feeling in my chest rang

Didn’t think the past could hit this good

But you still live right where the pages stood
