Lyrics
Scrolling through my phone tonight
Saw a face I hadn't seen in a while
Same blue eyes, same long blonde hair
Once upon a time made me smile
Though it's been half a lifetime
Since we were even in the same room
I know so much has changed since then
But you still look like the same old you
Clicked on a couple past posts
And listened to the song that you made
Couldn't help but grin when I
Heard them say your middle name
I'm probably just a footnote
At best a long forgotten flame
Though I let it go years ago
I'm writing this song just the same
Chorus:
Pen to paper just one more time
There's nothing else that I can do
Close my eyes and again I find
I'm writing songs about you
You once taught me what it meant to love
Back when the world was new
And though we went our separate ways
I'm still writing songs about you
I forgot just how your face lit up
Well maybe that's a lie
I never forgot one single thing
Right up till that goodbye
In time I learned and loved again
Though it never felt like that
When I'm singin' 'bout what true love is
Your face is staring back
Chorus:
Pen to paper just one more time
There's nothing else that I can do
Close my eyes and again I find
I'm writing songs about you
You once taught me what it meant to love
Back when the world was new
And though we went our separate ways
I'm still writing songs about you
When we first met I was still a boy
Now you've got one of your own
I've got two precious little girls myself
Even though they're nearly grown
We've both lived out full lives since
I wouldn't change that if I could
But on those cold and lonely nights
I can't help write as if we should
Chorus:
Pen to paper just one more time
There's nothing else that I can do
Close my eyes and again I find
I'm writing songs about you
You once taught me what it meant to love
Back when the world was new
And though we went our separate ways
I'm still writing songs about you
