lyrics

The one that could've worked out
The one that got away
Good to see that you've found
Love more than halfway

But so you know
Those 18 dreams of mine
Still live on when I see your eyes
Only difference is now I wake up
Just so you know
I do still think about
Where we could have gone
If you hadn't moved out
And gone half across the country
These thoughts are daily haunts it seems
But I chalk them up to 18 dreams

I don't know what I'd say
If you wanted to be
'cause I don't know you anymore
And you don't know me

You're just some words that's scattered on my screens
A vagrant ghost I'll never meet
Reminders of a lost December
From a life I don't remember

But so you know
Those 18 dreams of mine
Come right back
When I see your smile
Even if I'm long past wanting
And so you know
I still have yet to meet
Another love that makes me better than I am
These thoughts are daily haunts it seems
But I chalk them up to 18 dreams

How are you a stranger if I knew you before?
How are all the lessons learned not lessons anymore
How can we be strangers when we knew so well that it hurt?
