I saw your picture online
Thought you looked funny but kind of cute and
We met on an autumn day
I said hello and we went for a drive
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
We had so many good nights
The time at the drive in you kept us warm
You were like a friendly fire
Comfortable and bright until you burned out
And everyone called you a ticking bomb
But I knew that The Promise was your favorite song
I don't think that this is what forever means
I know I can't be what you need me to be
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
We were too wild and free
Didn't look both ways in the rain
Thought everything was fine
I said let's go and we went for a drive
(no I can't be what you need me to be)
(no I can't be what you need me to be)
(no I can't be what you need me to be)
Never been good at saying goodbye
Should've seen through each and every lie
I gave you much more than you deserved
At least I'll remember what I've learned
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
Ah ah ah
