[Verse 1]
Met you on a warm July night
Fairground lights and your hand in mine
Laughin’ as we walked hand in hand
Didn’t know then, but it changed my life
She pulled me to the spinning swings
You said, “Hold on tight”
Heard your laugh above the noise
That’s the moment I knew joy
[Pre-Chorus]
We moved fast, no second guess
Hearts on fire, no safety nets
And I’d do it all again, no doubt
'Cause love like that don’t burn out
[Chorus]
Now you're ten hours away
Still in the same time zone, but it’s not the same
Every night I miss your face
Like a song with a missing phrase
But we kissed where the music played
And I still feel you every day
Distance hurts, but it won’t change a thing
You’ve still got me — just like the spinning swings
[Verse 2]
We walked that fair ‘til it shut down
Tried every ride, just foolin’ around
You leaned on me in the fairground light
Then kissed me slow for the first time
No regrets for how we fell
You and me, we knew too well
That some things hit like a storm and stay
And no miles could pull us away
[Pre-Chorus]
We moved fast, but it felt like fate
Like the stars aligned just right that day
Even now, with you far from here
I close my eyes, and you’re near
[Chorus]
Now you're ten hours away
Still in the same time zone, but it’s not the same
Every night I miss your face
Like a song with a missing phrase
But we kissed where the music played
And I still feel you every day
Distance hurts, but it won’t change a thing
You’ve still got me — just like the spinning swings
[Bridge]
One day soon, I’ll see that smile
Crossin’ state lines, drivin’ miles
Back to the place where we first began
Back to us, back to then
[Final Chorus]
You’re ten hours away
But you still take my breath away
Even through this stretch of space
You're the one I can’t replace
Yeah, we kissed where the stars all blinked
And I still feel it when I blink
We were flyin’ — still are, in everything
You’ve still got me — just like the spinning swings
[Outro]
You’ve still got me...
Just like the spinning swings
