Lyrics
She laughed and said remember that first time years ago
You tried so hard to ask me out, afraid that I'd say, 'no!'
Oh, I thought you'd never come around and say those simple words
But when you did, they were the sweetest words that I had ever heard
We were at our high school reunion and, to me, she hadn’t changed a bit
Man, I still can’t believe that I broke up with her back then
She was my first love and she dreamed of kids, dogs and church socials
But I left to try and conquer the world, so, I took her hand and I said
Life rolled along and its current I was drawn to chase my dream
Then she said, well, did you find it?
And I said, yeah, I think I did, but it’s not how I thought it would be
Without you it’s no good, I love you endlessly
Well, there you go, I went and said it and she stopped short
But then she smiled and she hugged me
I was so afraid to come here and tell her
But I guess we were both hanging on to something we had together
Anyway, just to be sure, I said it again
Life rolled along and its current I was drawn to chase my dream
Then she said, well, did you find it?
And I said, yeah, I think I did, but it’s not how I thought it would be
Without you it’s no good, I love you endlessly
Then she winked and said, you haven't changed that much in these years
Your smile still reaches to your eyes, but I see it’s met some tears
I wondered, after all this time, if fate would come around
Bringing us what could have been, back to here right now
Many times I wondered the same thing and if it was fate, it works for me
She didn’t have those kids yet, not sure about the dogs and the church socials
But I guess it’s not too late for either of us to find our real dreams
We just needed time and this grand reunion
Life rolled along and its current I was drawn to chase my dream
Then she said, well, did you find it?
And I said, yeah, I think I did, but it’s not how I thought it would be
Without you it’s no good, I love you endlessly
I’m gonna love you endlessly
