Everything ahead

Love hit us when we were fourteen
Holding hands in teenage dreams
Flirtatious smile, a careful look
Your hand brushed mine and I was hooked
Too shy back then, it took more time
At 20 you were finally mine
Young love - it takes a fool to break it
We broke up, where's the blame? I'll take it

But I believed that
This story ain't over
that you would just show up
Look over my shoulder
And I believed that
Our future's together
This won't take forever
One day you'd be mine

Everything ahead, everything ahead was you
No matter what lay behind
Everything ahead, everything ahead was cool
I lived with you on my mind

But then you moved to NYC
(And I knew) you weren't coming back to me
You told me you'd met Mr. Right
And now you're carrying his kid inside

And I then I knew that
Our story was over
You wouldn't just show up
Look over my shoulder
And then I knew that
Your future's together
You'll be gone forever
You'll never be mine

Then everything ahead, everything ahead was new
I had to leave you behind
Though everything ahead, everything ahead was new
I still had you on my mind

And I told you that
Our friendship ain't over
You're welcome to show up
And cry on my shoulder
And then you say that
You don't really love him
You're desperate, you're coming
Don't know where to turn

Babe, everything I said, everything I said is true
It's me and you, we'll be fine
Everything ahead, everything ahead is cool
It's me and you, we'll be fine
Babe, everything I said, everything I said is true
It's me and you, we'll be fine
Everything ahead, everything ahead is cool
Now there's two of you, you're both mine
