Lyrics
Intro
You know that sweet spot
When gravity’s pull pays off
And you feel something with someone,
You don’t where it’s going
You might only get tonight or…
VERSE I
If you looked in the dictionary under Puppy Love
There you would see a picture of us
Sitting in your living room in the heat of summer
trying to play it cool
Though we’d been friends for years, this right here, it was brand new
PreChorus
All of a sudden your the only one I wanted talk to
To treat you as anything less than the best of the best
I’d be a damn fool
CHORUS
But Constant change equals growing pains
Who we were and who we are is not same
As a flicker becomes a flame
Ours are wildfires that cannot be tamed
VERSE II
That afternoon in June we thought we had found our other half
But when 2 become 1 you can lose yourself in that
Honestly our start may be more complex when I really think back
Sometimes we put on our rose colored glasses when looking at the past
Pre Chorus
Truth is we were young, we were selfish and confused
We both had some growing up and coming out to do
CHORUS
Constant change equals growing pains
Who we were and who we are is not same
But a love that’s lost is a lesson gained
Cause ours are wildfires that cannot be tamed
VERSE III
New love is the season where the possibilities bloom
New truths are revealed with each new moon
There comes a point we can’t keep up facades of perfection
And time does strange things to a connection
Prechrorus
Now we’re grasping for the thing we thought we’d always fight for
The hardest parts admitting it’s not working anymore
