Bright lights, big city
Was quite extraordinary
The drive was pretty
I was in perfect company
The love of a lifetime
Since we were elementary friends
The one with the bright eyes
[Verse 2]
Why can't I be optimistic?
I tried to find the logic logically
I had a dream and I could not shake it
I was standing up there naked
[Verse 3]
There's fear in the truth at hand, frozen I forgot to understand
The live keep living; growing older more into a man
And I let her grow away from me
[Verse 4]
Love. Love is not pretending
Time. Time was meant for mending
Memories into all is satisfactory
Healthy smiles fill the page the day we spent in miles
And I let her drive away from me
[Verse 5]
The one with the bright eyes
Laughed her way inside this music box;
Stored away in the corner of my heart
And I let her get away from me
But I'll never take that day away from me
