Lyrics:

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Oh, our futures were written with crayons in coloring books
It was misspelled and outside the lines, and we loved how it looked
Like the crooked hem of your favorite childhood dress
And the holes in my jeans from years of carelessness
I know since we've grown, we ache for those memories
Honestly, nothing's even compared to you next to me, next to me
When the words came to you for the first time, you knew you were hooked
And the pride that you felt at the last page of your first book
And the bravery I forced when I sang to an audience of three (ooh)
Well, it took a million wrong notes just to find a single melody and key
I know that since we've grown, we plead for clarity
Honestly, nothing's ever made sense 'til you were next to me, next to me
If time is money, then I'll spend it all for you
I will buy you flowers with the minutes we outgrew
I'll turn hours into gardens, planted just for us to take
I'll be reckless with my days, building castles in your name
Since we've grown, we long for concrete things
But honestly, nothing's felt more sure than when you were next to me, next to me

So let's cut down the red tape and gather up the pieces of our youth (ooh)
'Cause there's nothing in this world we can't fix with some scissors and glue
