Tuesday Night

I remember it was the second week of June
Little did we know it would be our doom
We were out for summer break and things were going great
It all happened too soon
We were painting the town and messing around
We had so many plans
But I'll never understand how we got so far yet still came crumbling down

Take me back to that Tuesday night
The day we had our very first fight
If I would've known that'd be the last time, I would've tried to change your mind
When you walked away, I would've tried to make you stay
That was the last time I called you mine

I remember when we were driving along we turned the stereo on
Sang with the windows down
Dancing in the rear-view like you had a crowd
Later, I was writing a song on the piano
I asked if you wanted to hear it, but you said no
You said no

Take me back to that Tuesday night
The day we had our very first fight
If I would've known that'd be the last time, I would've tried to change your mind
When you walked away, I would've tried to make you stay
That was the last time I called you mine

Tuesday night, at 10 pm, I tried so hard to make us whole again
You left in such a rush that you forgot some of your stuff
I never saw it coming and I still cry from time to time
Haven't seen you since then
Oddly enough, I think of this often

Take me back to that Tuesday night
The day we had our very first fight
If I would've known that'd be the last time, I would've tried to change your mind
When you walked away, I would've tried to make you stay
That was the last time I called you mine
Oh woah
Take me back to that Tuesday night
The first time I ever saw you cry
Your tear-stained cheeks in the moonlight
I wish I could've tried to make things right
I still see your face
The last time I was in your embrace
The last time I held your hand in mine
