Before It Was Over

Today I took a drive out to the park by the hillside
I spent the afternoon looking at pictures of you
Do I ever take up the same places in your mind
Or was it all just a dream
And I'm caught in the wake as I'm falling, falling, falling

Before it was over we'd stay at your house
We'd put on a movie and sleep on the couch
We'd talk over coffee
And I never knew how fast I was falling, falling, falling
Before it was over September had come
And just like a moon that eclipses the sun
We made it look easy, you promised to stay
I watched as our flame began to smolder
Before it was over

Second chances are always the start of the ending
So me and Scotty drove out to a culvert at night
We talked about us and I took out our shoebox of memories
As a spark on a match
Had turned into a flame and it's falling, falling, falling

Before it was over, you knew it would end
You walked on alone and you found a new friend
You'll never be lonely, I figured it out
As I saw you falling falling, falling
Before it was over, your promise to stay
Was shattered to pieces when you walked away
You made it look easy, and I'm left to blame for that
As the nights start getting colder
Before it was over

And as the sparks started flying off that memory shoe box
I'd never forget that night

Before it was over we said our goodbyes
And live on as lessons in each of our lives
Time moves so fast and
I hope that you never feel like you're falling falling falling
Before it was over I thought you were wrong
But time made it easy for me to move on
The grass is so green now I feel like the weight has been finally
lifted off my shoulders

Before it was over
Before it was over
Before it was over
Before it was over
