Then Somehow
What happened to high school sweethearts?
What happened to look at someone and not fearing falling apart?
When a word was all it took for something to start?
And Not feeling so stupid but feeling smart
About what you did? being with them?
No feeling stupid for loving him...
Why is everything not so simple anymore?
Why can't we sit in the floor
Holding hands and talk
Or we could go on one of those walks
Where it's fall and the leaves are falling down
The crunching is the only sound
Or sit at the bar in a dinner sharing a coke
But instead we end up with our hearts broke
We end up on the phone with our best friend crying all night
Instead of watching each other in the moonlight
Go back to the time when the guy gave his girl his Letterman coat
Or sailing in a little wooden boat
When did love become sex
When did breaking up meant hating your ex
Love is so complicated now
Why can't we go back to then somehow?
