Love Goes On

We were 15

You sat right next to me, we shared a textbook on chemistry

You were my first, so it's no surprise that you got the best of me

But what's perspective? Everyone's reckless when they're just 15

I never thought that we'd be 17

And you got your hands on me, begging me to give you a reason to stay

Yeah, I was so naive, watching while you turn to leave

Didn't think a heart could heal after it breaks

But love goes on, pages turn

Ends to songs, lessons learned

Sometimes it's here, and then it's gone

But that's okay, love goes on

Love goes on

I had my doubts

I was hard to get to when I first met you that night in Old Town

I was defensive, but you were relentless in breaking my guard down

You asked me, who broke it? Stole some emotion

Well, I'd have to recount

I never thought that I'd bring 17 all the way to you and me

Thinking history repeats and you never stay

You said you're so naive, thinking I could ever leave

Don't you know a heart can heal after it breaks?

And love goes on, pages turn

Ends to songs, lessons learned

Sometimes it's here, and then it's gone

But that's okay, love goes on

Love goes on

Yeah-yeah

When it's here, and then it's gone, yeah-yeah

And you think you've lost the one, yeah-yeah

Oh, when all is said and done, yeah-yeah-yeah

Love goes on, pages turn

Ends to songs, lessons I learned

Sometimes it's here, then it's gone

But that's okay, love goes on

Love goes on, pages turn

Ends to songs, lessons I learned

Sometimes it's here, and then it's gone

But that's okay, yeah, love goes on

Love goes on

Love goes on

Love goes on
