I think it was the fourth of that july

I remember looking in each other′s eyes

Watching as the spark was fadingBut neither one could say it

Ironically we laughed until we cried

The sun came up and then it got so quiet

I knew the end was getting closer

I thought we would grow old, ya

But you

Will always have my heart, it's nothing new

Whenever i′m alone i try to look through our old photographs

Remember when we used to laugh

But i don't recognize us anymore

My momma told me

If you love someone you've got to set them free

But i guess that you′re not coming back

I thought that we could beat the odds

And try to fix all of our flaws

When you said you loved me, oh you must have had your fingers crossed

The time goes by the scars no longer show

But underneath it all there′s still this hole

Filled up with my second guesses

But i guess i've learned a lesson

That people in your life will come and go

But from the ashes something beautiful will grow

Cause i′m happier than ever lately

I'm thankful for all you gave me

Oh you

Will always have my heart, it′s nothing new

Whenever i'm alone i try to look through our old photographs

Remember when used to laugh

But i don′t recognize us anymore

My momma told me

If you love someone you've got to set them free

But i guess that you're not coming back

I thought that we could beat the odds

And try to fix all of our flaws

When you said you loved me, oh you must have had your fingers crossed

Ah ou, ah ou, ah ou

Must have had your

Ah ou, ou ah

When you said you loved me, oh you must have had your fingers crossed
