Three years ago
the world tore us apart
And we went our seperate ways
played our seperate games
but not too long ago
you came breezing back thru my door
and everything I loved about you
surfaced in my heart
Cause you're still just the same
through all the time we've been apart
when I had a cold
you had tissues
and when you were sick
you'd let me make you soup
when I was cranky you made me sleep
you'd touch me and my heart leap
you'd hold my hands
we're unashamed
to say you love me to
and it all still stands
cause it's still that way
cause you could always make me laugh
no matter what was going on
you'd sing some silly little song
and your smile
made my heart melt
Do you have any idea how that felt?
and it's still that way today
the crazy little things you'd do
the goofy little things you'd say
you'd have freezed if I was cold
trying to give me your coat
even though you knew
that I'd refuse
And it's still that way
how you were always so, so cute
all hyper active
goofing off
but sometimes your voice
could get so soft
so willing to make room
for me to lay beside you
and you know, it's still that way
from the beginning
you'd never hesitate
to call me on all my bull shit
point out when I was being stupid
then bring us back to a clean slate
and it's still that way
the way the room went silent
then you'd suddenly attack
and make me scream with laughter
and try to get you back
and they'd knock on the door
and ask what was going on
and we'd just laugh
and it's still like that
like an old married couple
bickering was a game
"Oh, he does this all the time.."
"That's just like her, it's always the same.."
we used to ride around sometimes
and sit there, by the water all night
sometimes you'd hide my notebooks
and steal my pens so I couldn't write
'Til I chilled for a little while
watch some tv
have a little fun
And you would grin at me
muss up my hair
and it's still that way
it's all still there
we used to dance in the rain, remember?
you knew I loved the rain
on the roof
in the dark
we had so much fun
and it's still that way
like sometimes you'd just sit on me
or I would jump on your back
and we would wrestle around on the floor
you let me win
no matter how much stronger than me you are
you would pick me up and swing me around
just to make me scream
and beg you not to drop me
but you would never ever drop me
you'd humor me
when I'd come up with those ideas
you'd laugh at me
nuzzle my neck, rub my back
make my skin tingle
and it's still like that
sometimes you would let me cry
and you would hold me through it
late at night
or you'd force me to laugh
and I'd search for ways to pay you back
oh, together, we were crazy
we'd run around in my front yard
and suddenly, you would grab me
and you would kiss me hard
but you could be so gentle sometimes
and, with you, I felt safe
I'm just amazed
that, somehow, it's still that way
the way you used to talk
somewhere close to three am
when you were tired
but deliriously wired
you would mutter the strangest stuff
"driving down the road in a car called Joseph.."
and those names you'd call me
if not 'sweetheart' and 'honey'
then 'goldielocks' or 'sunny'
and you wanna know what's funny?
it's still that way these days
you were so very nice to me
like no one else has been before
and I know that you would never hurt me
of that much I was always sure
these were all the things I came to miss
and do you know what the very best part is?
that no matter what I do
no matter what I say
Darling, it's still that way
