Mine Lyrics

You're at your job 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 bother with love if it never lastsI say can you believe it?
As we're lying on the couch
The moment I could see it
Yes, yes, I can see it nowDo you remember 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 mineFlash forward and we're taking on the world together
And there's a bunch 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 parents' mistakesBut we got bills to pay
We got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes, this is what I thought aboutDo you remember 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 mineDo you remember all the city lights on the water?
You saw me start 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 mineAnd I remember that fight, two thirty pm
As everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the streetBraced myself for the goodbye
'Cause that's all I've ever known
And you took me by surprise
You said I'll never leave you aloneYou said I remember how we felt sitting by the water
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mineYou made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mineHold on
Do you believe it? Hold on
We're gonna make it now, yes, yes
And I can see it, yes, yes
I can see it now
