It's been a while
Since we dressed up for the night
Took our lives into each other's hands

And danced til morning light

It's been a while

Since I've seen you in this town
It's strange cause we're just streets away
But years apart somehow


I keep dreaming about
All the friends that I don't see

The ones that I let go
When I decided who to be


I've made my bed
No use trying to make amends
With every half kept promise

And thoughts that's in my head

Chorus:


We were the best of friends
With worst ideas

You left such a bitter taste
I'll go to bed feeling fine
Wake up next to my mistakes


We were the best of friends
With worst ideas

You left such a bitter taste
You were all over my tongue
Now you're all over this page


Sixteen looks like so much fun
Things have changed a lot now

We're not saying young
You're just a ghost
In the hallways of my mind

And my words are just a window
Through which all my thoughts they climb


Late nights
I'm skipping work again
I'll spend the day in bed

Thinking about what could have been

You took the best I had

Now I'm at my worst
I met God he put this fear in me
Then kicked me back to Earth


Chorus (x2):


We were the best of friends
With worst ideas
You left such a bitter taste

I'll go to bed feeling fine
Wake up next to my mistakes


We were the best of friends
With worst ideas
You left such a bitter taste

You were all over my tongue
Now you're all over this page
