I remember like it was yesterday
no i could never forget
we were climbing apple trees
being chased by honey bees
as we played in the sunshine underneath that grapevine
I'm sorry I wasn't stronger
and that our childhood wasn't longer
than the few short years it took for us to see
that you were the tough one
always sticking up for me
i watched you sacrifice your youth
so i could be free
to be me
I know we're older
and that our lives are half over
and that you missed out on so much love
i wish i could repay you
for the selflessness you showed
for the bruises and for the blood you spilled
that paved this music's road
repeat chorus
bridge
If I never said i love you
then i'll sing it with this song
yeah I know we never heard that much
but not to say it now would be wrong
repeat chorus
