Текст песни
You were seventeen in that red sweater
Laughing at the movie
Popcorn on the floor
My hands shaking when I touched your fingers
Thought the world began and ended at your door
We learned each other street by street
Kissed behind the corner store sign
You said Promise me you'll never leave
I said it back and meant it at the time
You’re the thing I can’t forget
First love like a scar I don't regret
Every song
Every small sunset
Pulls me back to where we met
You were my beginning
My first regret
You’re the one my heart can’t quite forget
Suitcase open on your bedroom carpet
Your mother in the hallway trying not to cry
College on the map like some far planet
We joked about the distance
We both knew it was a lie
You hugged me twice out in the driveway
Said Call me when you miss me Even late
I watched your tail lights blur in the dark
I didn’t know how heavy silence tastes
You’re the thing I can’t forget
First goodbye still burning in my chest
Every road Every cheap motel bed
Makes me feel that empty passenger seat again
You were my beginning
My first regret
You’re the one my heart can’t quite forget
You’re the thing I can’t forget
First love like a scar I don't regret
Every laugh
Every half-spent breath
Lives inside a place I keep unswept
You were my beginning
My first regret
You’re the one my heart can’t quite forget
