Back When We Were Us

Back When We Were Us

I still remember the summer air
The way the light danced in your hair
Old songs playing on the radio
Hearts wide open, moving slow

Back when we were us
No fear, just faith and trust
Time stood still beneath those skies
With forever in our eyes
We didn’t know what we would lose
Back when we were me and you

There’s a park bench where we used to sit
Talking ‘bout dreams we’d never quit
Now I walk alone through that same place
But I still feel your hand, your grace

Back when we were us
No fear, just faith and trust
Time stood still beneath those skies
With forever in our eyes
We didn’t know what we would lose
Back when we were me and you

And though the years keep rolling on
I hear your voice in every song
You’re not gone — you’re just away
Living in my yesterday

Back when we were us
Before goodbye, before the dust
Time stood still, we didn’t see
We were writing memories
Now I carry all that was
Back when we were us
