Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh
You were in college working part time waitin' tables.
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk
With the fear of falling
Wonderin' why we botherd with love.
If it never lasts.
I say, can you believe it?
As we're lying 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 arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless mans careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Flashforward 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 say we'll never make my parents mistakes.
But we got bills to pay
We got nothing 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 arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless mans 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 mans careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Oh oh oh oh oh
And I remember that fight 2:30 AM
'Cause everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the goodbye
'Cause it'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 mans careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine
Hold on, make it last
Hold on, never turn back
You made a rebel of a careless mans careful daughter.
(Hold on, make it last)
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
(Hold on)
Hold on
Do you believe it
Hold on
We're gonna make it now
Hold on
And I can see it
Yeah, yeah
See it now (x3)
