Lyricist:     Composer:



You were in college working part-time, waiting tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk, with a fear of falling
Wondering why we'd bother 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 when we were sitting there by the water
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Fast forward and we're taking 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 parent's mistakes

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 when we sitting there by the water
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine
Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw I started to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

And I remember that fight, 2:30 am
As 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 that’s all I’ve ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said I’ll never leave you alone

You said I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it’s like the first time
fell in love with a careless man’s 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 man’s careful daughter
You are the best thing that’s ever been mine

Yes, yes do you believe it?Yes Yes
Yes, yes we’re gonna make it nowYes Yes
Yes, yes I can see itYes Yes
I can see it now
