We Were

[Verse 1]
We were just a couple years short of the age by my name on my fake ID
And still 'bout a hundred away from the day your daddy said you could run with me
We were a couple of line-steppers that just couldn't wait to step over the line
Never thinking we wouldn't last, I was your first and you were mine

[Chorus]
We were leather jackets hanging onto a Harley, two heartbeats in the moonlight
We were both feet hanging out over the edge of a water tower skyline
At least there's a little bit of sweet in the bitter, though a part of me is always gonna miss
her
I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were

[Próxima Parte]

[Verse 2]
We were gonna make it, weren't we, baby? Had it all laid out in out in our mind
By the time we knew time was runnin' out, we'd done run out of time
We were a downtown, Saturday night; last call, cover band
'Til that last song played, never thought we'd fade like the stamp on the back of her hand

[Chorus]
We were her on my shoulders, lighter in the air, "Pour Some Sugar on Me"
We were top down at Johnson's field when she whispered that she wants me

[Próxima Parte]

[Chorus]
[Próxima Parte]
Mmm Yes, I do
Friends say, Oh well; Let that ship sail, you gotta let go of her
Just wasn't meant to be, but somewhere down deep; I still believe...
that we were
