Mine

Oh oh ohh
Oh oh ohh
You were in college working part-time
waitin' tables
Left a small town and never looked back
I was a flight risk
with a fear of fallin'
wonderin' why we bother with love
if it never lasts
I said "Can you believe it?"
as we're lyin' on the couch
the moment I can see it
Yes, yes
I can see it now
Do you remember we were sittin' there by the water?
You put your arms around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Flash forward
and we're takin' on the world together
and there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learn my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You'll say "We'll never make my parents' mistakes"
But we got bills to pay
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes, this is what i thought about
Do you remember we were sittin' there by the water?
You put your arms around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw me start to believe, for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been miiine
Oh oh ohh
and i remember that fight 2: 30am
You said that everything was slippin'
right out of our hands
I ran out cryin'
and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the goodbye
'cause that's all i've ever known
And you took me by surprise
You said, "I'll never leave you alone"
You said, "I remember how we felt sittin' by the water
and every time i look at you
it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been miiiiinee"
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing thats ever been miiiiinee
Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And i can see it
I can see it now
