back before it all started
that night at the game, when it rained
the field was slippery and I walked up to you
your eyes lit up when you saw me
you threw your arms around me in excitement
you said "I'm so glad you're here"
and I said "me too."
we walked around and held hands just to make her mad
I felt like I was walking on air and nothing would ever go bad.
even your parents loved me, your dad knowing me by name
I wonder if you remember that night
I'll never ever forget
I drove home in the rain, crying, thinking about how happy I was
and how genuine my happiness was around you
it's funny how you gave me all this joy and you took it all away in the span of a year.
and I still miss you from time to time
but I will not give you the power to break me all over again
