Next To Me

Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books It was misspelled and outside the lines and we loved how it looked Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress And the holes in my jeans from years of carelessness I know since we've grown, we ache for those memories Honestly, nothing's even compared to you next to me, next to me When the words came to you for the first time, you knew you were hooked And the pride that you felt at the last page of your first book And the bravery I forced when I sang to an audience of three Well, it took a million wrong notes just to find a single melody and key I know since we've grown we plea for clarity Honestly, nothing's ever made sense til you were next to me, next to me (On Piano* But Chords Written for Guitar with Capo) If time is money, then I'll spend it all for you I will buy you flowers with the minutes we outgrew I'll turn hours into gardens, planted just for us to take I'll be reckless with my days, building castles in your name Since we've grown, we long for concrete things Honestly, nothing's felt so sure than when you were next to me, next to me So lets cut down the red tape and gather up the pieces of our youth Cause there's nothing in this world we can't fix with some scissors and glue *Piano Chords
