We sat inside the car of that airport parking lot
At twenty-three you promised me I would never be forgotten
I didn’t watch you leaving ‘cause that was more than I could take.
I just held the wheel so tightly that my hands began to ache
You called my phone and said, “Baby, you’re not alone.”
Chorus:
That’s when I loved, I loved the way you held us together
That’s when I loved, I loved the way you saw us forever
You wrote me letters, once a week for a year
That’s how I knew we’d make it through, that’s how I felt you near
With every line, your hand touched mine
Chorus/Instrumental
Tripped on my breath when I saw you at my door
You wrapped your hands around my waist
Kissed the freckle on my face
Told me I’m the one you still adore
Chorus:
