We kissed when I was three
it didn’t mean anything
but looking back it’s all that mattered to me
My world was you and me,
a lego set, a stuffed puppy,
an open door that let the world’s light in
My family moved when I was eight
to a new home far away
to this day all I remember is your face
but it’s probably a good thing
cause now we’re so different it seems
last time we talked we were opposites on everything
Puppy love always end
we grow up, can’t play pretend
or at least we start doing it differently
I fell in love in the 8th grade
on every note we wrote fake names
turned into couples from the big screen
We made out and watched tv
she meant everything
so when she left I went into hiding
After a couple of years
a good friend became more dear
but I never had the guts to say anything
she was older than me
she felt out of my league
too caught up in the books she was reading
So when she moved away
it kinda sucked and ruined my day
but now I’m thankful for the friendship she gives me
And when I was 19
I found the girl of my dreams
a blonde hair, green eyed beauty
I laughed at everything she’d say
I loved the way she said my name
but in the end she just couldn’t love me
I tried to give her everything
I wrote her into all my dreams
but my bed was always cold the next morning
Yeah, my bed was always cold the next morning.
