My shoes,
They walked a hundred miles,
So you,
You could at least just stay for a while.It’s the least you could do.You sat staring at me,
I can't take you seriously,
When you looking like that,
Wearing a face like that.Headphones,
Keep me warm on the long walk home,
But you,
Could hold my hand so I'm not alone.It’s the least you could do.You sat looking at me,
I can't take you seriously,
With your hair falling over your eyes,
Trying to hide a smile.What’s the least you could do?

You slowed the clocks when you talked,
To me, to me,
The roof of my mouth turned heavy and round,
To me, to me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.A new newspaper crown,
I wore,
I wore it out,
If you, if you knew me now,
Could you go without?I wish you were still,
Teasing me out,
I wish you were still,
Around.I'll give,
Back the words that you said,
To me, to me,
I'll dry,
Out the stream that you fed,
Through me through me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.

Only six years old, I already knew,
How my life would be, what I was gonna do,
Had it all worked out, I didn't see a reason why it wouldn't come about,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
There was nothing in this world stopping me.

Fast forward to my early teens,
I'd given up on the childhood dream,
Sick of trying to fit in at school,
Always being different and never being cool,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
That I could be six years old again.

When I was everything I wanted to be,
Nothing seemed to be out of reach,
Life was simple and time was on my side.

To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,
Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,
Never lose your spark,
Never lose your smile,
Keep shining bright just like a star,
You're perfect as you are.

Started working at the local store,
A good job, but wanted so much more,
Too big for a small town,
But not knowing how to break down all the doors,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
That things would change.

Didn't wanna meet mister right,
Didn't need another reason to end up tied,
Won't settle for settling down,
When there’s a whole wide world just waiting to be found,
I dreamed, I hoped, believed,
And everything else in between,
Needed to remember the time.

When I was everything I wanted to be,
Nothing seemed to be out of reach,
Life was simple and time was on my side.

To the little girl who loved to twirl around the bedroom dancing,
Singing all the words into her hairbrush like the world was watching,
Never lose your spark,
Never lose your smile,
Keep shining bright just like a star,
You're perfect as you are, You're perfect as you are.

You bring me coffee every morning while I lay in bed,
You read the paper, take a shower, it’s the same every day,
Never changes,
But I love our little ways.

I make you toast the way you like without the edges on,
You go to work but call me straight away 'cause you already miss home,
And our little world,
And all our little ways.

You,
Are the reason that I smile,
The good thing in my life,
You,
You may not ever see,
Just what you mean to me.

Wanna spend the rest of my life,
Holding your hand, stood by your side,
Wanna be the girl on your arm,
Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,
In happy endings, with your best friend,
Like a fairy tale.

Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,
Wanna be your everything,
Wanna see how life turns out,
The good the bad and all that’s in between,
Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,
Wanna share my life and all our little ways.

You stroke my hair when I lay over you and watch TV,
I rub your shoulders when you're stressed, I try to take your cares away,
We've got each other and all our little ways.

You,
Are the reason that I smile,
The good thing in my life,
You,
You may not ever see,
Just what you mean to me.

Wanna spend the rest of my life,
Holding your hand, stood by your side,
Wanna be the girl on your arm,
Your lucky charm, the reason you believe,
In happy endings, with your best friend,
Like a fairy tale.

Wanna be your first, wanna be your last,
Wanna be your everything,
Wanna see how life turns out,
The good the bad and all that’s in between,
Just wanna love you for the rest of my days,
Wanna share my life and all our little ways.

When it rains it pours,
And I feel like I've been drowning,
Since you've been gone.
I believed in love and happy endings,
But that ended when it all went wrong.

Now in the dead of the night,
The pain gets a little bit stronger,
I spend a little longer thinking about you,
And when the music plays,
It don't hit in the same way,
You took the soul from the song,
And the words right outta my mouth.

When the cold wind blows,
Without an arm to wrap around your shoulder,
It feels a little colder than it did before.
I wish I knew, if there was something I could do,
To stop my mind reminding me you're not here no more.

Now in the dead of the night,
The pain gets a little bit stronger,
I spend a little longer thinking about you,
And when the music plays,
It don't hit in the same way,
You took the soul from the song,
And the words right outta my mouth.

I look at the sun,
And I know it’s gonna be one of the days,
That takes me right back to when I was young,
Dreaming through the summer haze.

When nothing was scary, I could do anything.
Loving to cartwheel and dance in the rain,
Pulling up daisies to put in a chain,
Laughing for hours and rolling down hills,
Climbing the trees at the old farmer's mill.

These are the days I remember,
These are the days I miss,
When young and free was all I had to be,
And reality didn't exist.

Stuck on the train riding to work again,
Life on a one-way street,
My only escape is to pause and replay,
Like a memory played on repeat.

When nothing was scary, I could do anything.
Loving to cartwheel and dance in the rain,
Pulling up daisies to put in a chain,
Laughing for hours and rolling down hills,
Climbing the trees at the old farmer's mill.

These are the days I remember,
These are the days I miss,
When young and free was all I had to be,
And reality didn't exist.

Take me back to being young,
Take me back to being young,
Take me back to being young,
Take me back to being young.

Take my hand, c’mon hold on tight,
And we'll be on our way.

Rising sun in the morning light,
No longer will we lay.

Yeah because our love is alright,
Yeah because our love,
La, la, la.
