i was 23
you were just 14 days older
we thought we owned the world
how could we have been so dumb

you by my side
was all i ever needed
i thought we could do it all
how wrong that all turned out

night darkness envelopes me
jasmine smothers all the memories
i breathe it in deep
and always go back to that place

you held my heart in your hand
you held my hand so tight
but in the end we just both grew weary
and one night you gave up the fight
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say

    i used to think was there something i couldve done
    then i remembered all the tears that fell
    all the words echoing off deaf ears
    you didnt want to know

    now i wish i didnt
    seeing a body broken, the air so silent
    your mama crying, everyone else denying
    but they knew... we all did
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
