There′s an old song I wrote for you

It was everything you'd want it to be

A melody lift, a minor chord fallIt was timeless like you and me

And when the chorus hit, it felt like flyin′

It would've played at every wedding night, and

It went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's Heaven, but we must be higher

I′m gonna love you ′til my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

There's an old song I wrote for you

I would play it for all of our friends

It would make ′em all dance and make 'em all cry

When it′s over they'd say, "Play it again"

I would have sang it to you soft and sweet

You′d want it every anniversary

And it went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's Heaven but we must be higher (we must be higher)

I'm gonna love you ′til my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

Why′d you have to mess it all up?

Why'd you have to burn it all down?

The words were so perfect

The world should′ve heard it

And sang every line out loud

Why'd you have to mess it all up?

Why′d you have to burn it all down?

Should've played on the radio

Day after day

′Til they say that it's all played out, now, now

And it went like

You are my one, you set my world on fire

I know there's Heaven, but we must be higher

I′m gonna love you ′til my heart retires

Forever will last

I think it went something like that

Forever will last

I think it went something like that
