[Verse 1]
Thinkin' back, thinkin' of you
Summertime, think it was June
Yeah, think it was June
Laying back, head on the grass
Chewing gum, having some laughs
Yeah, having some laughs
[Chorus]
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one

[Verse 2]
Drinking back, drinking for two
Drinking with you
When drinking was new
Sleeping in the back of my car

Didn't need to go far
[Chorus]
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
[Bridge]
I don't know where we are going now
I don't know where we are going now
[Verse 3]
Wake up call, coffee and juice
Rememberin' you
What happened to you?

Talk about life since then
Talk about why did it end
[Chorus]
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
You made me feel like the one
Made me feel like the one
The one
[Bridge]
I don't know where we are going now
I don't know where we are going now
[Outro]
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now
So take a look at me now, now
