This Was Me, This Was You
Looking back on your first love sometimes the tragedy is obvious but sometimes the beauty of it is more apparent.
We make a lot of choices in our romantic lives. However, when you look back at that innocent first love you realize there was nothing ever quite like that.
Lyrics
Candy apple Jeep Renegade
Pretty much thought I had it made
I was 20, you were younger
Couldn’t deny there was hunger
I was fire, you were fuel
I burned hot and you burned cool
Burned up in a fiery mess
You went east and I went west
Til’ this day when I hear that song
I want to hold you all night long
All those mysteries, not many clues
Workin’ on our night moves
This was me, this was you
No one else would ever do
No other love could be so true
No other heart I ever knew
This was me This was you
You went on to bigger things
Fancy house and diamond rings
I filled the hole with a buzz
I did it all just because
Some nights I drive by our old haunts
Full of history, hopes and wants
Thought of knockin’ on your door
Don’t think that way anymore.
This was me, this was you
No one else would ever do
No other love could be so true
No other heart I ever knew
This was me This was you
I moved on with my life
Picket fence, kids and wife
Some nights I still sit and wonder
Do you hear the same distant thunder
This was me, this was you
No one else would ever do
No other love could be so true
No other heart I ever knew
This was me This was you
Sometimes I remember
Think it was late September
