2009

Back when the world felt small
And dreams fit in our hands
We ran through summer nights
Like kids with no demands
Flip phones, mixtapes, midnight calls
Hearts wide open, we had it all

You said forever in the glow of streetlights
I believed you every time

Take me back to 2009
Before we lost the stars in our eyes
When love was loud and full of light
And we thought we'd never say goodbye
Frozen in time, that sacred line
You were yours, and I was mine
I still replay it all in my mind
Take me back to 2009

We carved our names in the oak tree
Wrote our truths in black and blue
Now all that’s left are ghosted screens
And songs that sound like you
Every sunset feels the same
Like it’s whisperin’ your name

You kissed me once on your front porch step
And I swore I’d never forget

Take me back to 2009
Before we lost the stars in our eyes
When love was loud and full of light
And we thought we'd never say goodbye
Frozen in time, that sacred line
You were yours, and I was mine
I still replay it all in my mind
Take me back to 2009

Maybe we were just too young
But that doesn’t mean it wasn’t love
If I could turn back the hands of time
I'd meet you there, one last time

Take me back to 2009
Before we lost the stars in our eyes
When love was loud and full of light
And we thought we'd never say goodbye
Frozen in time, that sacred line
You were yours, and I was mine
I still replay it all in my mind
Take me back to 2009

Take me back to 2009
Where your heart still beat with mine
No pain, no lies, no space, no time
Just your hand holding tight to mine
If only we could press rewind
Take me back to 2009
