Take it slow
Tell me all how you've grown
just for me
Could we all reminisce
Better yet here's a pen
Make a list
Fill it full of all the things
I've missed
'Cause I can barely drive
past the school
Without stopping to
think of you
And how we used to
act the fool
But worst of all
I wish I'd called
At least a thousand
times or more
Just to hear what
I've been missing
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we
won't get back
If I picture it now
It don't seem so bad
Either way
I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's
meant to be
'Cause you know it's not
what I believe
Can't help but think that it
should've been me
Either way
I still wish you were here
Thinking back on the days
Where we all used to say
I know anywhere's
better than here
In the back of the class
Where we grew up too fast
Living life like there's
nothing to fear
But the ice on the road
Driving home all alone
Singing along to a song from
three summers ago
The one that made you
remember it
Now I'll always remember it
As the song that your life
ended with
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we
won't get back
If I picture it now
It don't seem so bad
Either way
I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's
meant to be
'Cause you know it's not
what I believe
Can't help but think that it
should've been me
Either way
I still wish you were here
And they say you're in a
better place
But a better place is
right here with me
Yeah they say you're in a
better place
Too bad it's not what I believe
'Cause a picture is
all that I have
To remind me that you're
never comin' back
If I picture it now
It just makes me sad
And right now
I just wish you were here
Don't say everything's
meant to be
'Cause you know it's not
what I believe
Can't help but think that it
should've been me
In the end
I just wish you were here
Yeah they
say you're in a better place
Either way
I still wish you were here
They say you're in a
better place
In the end
I just wish you were here
