you then you now (download)
[YOU THEN YOU NOW]

so young
in the halls of the school
when I caught eyes with you
and I was done
'cause I knew
that after that first glance
I'd never have a chance
without you

together we
were making memories
but we were too naive
to believe that seasons change


well that day came
we went our separate ways
to learn new names
and places
but your face
it lingered in my mind
deep down inside
my soul
this love
until you were gone
I wouldn't see how strong
it had become
to me

it was you then
and it's you now
it was you then
and it's you now
our love beat time
and so many miles
it was you then
oh girl
and it's you again

now you're back with me
oh nothing has changed
it was meant to be this way
so easy
and you agreed
we flew to celebrate the night
beneath the desert lights
with our friends
and I put some green
on the number sixteen
'cause that's when you would be
the best bet that I
have ever made

it was you then
and it's you now
it was you then
and it's you now
our love beat time
and so many miles
it was you then
oh love
and it's you again

from here
we walk together
two by two
forever

from here
we dance together
one in the same
lovers

it was you then
and it's you now
it was you then
and it's you now
