You and I

I threw your pictures in the trash
I don’t need them anymore
At least that’s what I’m hoping for
I can’t take this anymore
I want to forget (forget it all)
I don’t want to feel this anymore1

Take me back to that day
Back to when love didn’t hurt this much
Back to when the days were shorter
And the stars would stay out and play longer
Back to when you and I
Were just that
You and I2

And as the rain disguises all my tears
I walk over hand in hand with all my fears
To the place where we first kissed
That night wasn’t suppose to end
The entire world was ours3

I went back for your pictures
Today I held them once again
And burned them all to ashes
I took them to our tree
Kissed them all, and set them free4

Take me back to that day
Back to when love didn’t hurt this much
Back to when the days were shorter
And the stars stayed out to play longer
Back to when you and I
Were just that
You and I5

Hold me just once more
Tell me you feel the same
I need to hear your voice
Just one more time again
Please tell me you won’t forget
What we once use to be
I promise I’ll always love you
No matter how much it hurts to see you leave6

Take me back to that day
Back to when love didn’t hurt this much
Back to when the days were shorter
And the stars stayed out to play longer
Back to when you and I
Were just that
You and I
