4 Years In 3 Minutes

How do I write about
4 years in 3 minutes?
Dinner parties with your parents
Sipping red wine, talking marriage
Lake house layed back, t shirt sharing
Midnight FaceTimes you were swearing
You were changing
But you weren't changing

And I'm not mad about it
I wouldn't be the same without it
But I couldn't tell my mom about it
Cause how do I fit
4 years in 3 minutes

4 years in 3 minutes
Every dream I had
With you in it
Your life and mine so intertwined
The reckless love and white lies
I gave my all and you didn't

Wish I was mad about it
That's easier than being sad about it
I'd play the victim and I'd let you have it
But we were kids learning to love
That's all it was
4 years and now it's gone
It's overdue but I'm moving on

Burning moonlight in your driveway
Never could let things go my way
You'd kiss me and it didn't matter
16 going on 22
I grew up and where were you?
You made excuses
I told the truth
And I had to do
What you couldn't do
Say goodbye
While I was still in love with you

And I'm not mad about it
I wouldn't be the same without it
Took time to wrap my mind around it
But I finally wrote a song about it
4 years in 3 minutes
4 years in 3 minutes
