The Ones I Thought I Lost

[Verse 1]
Whoa, the day how the sun did shine
It was the best night ever in North Carolina
And you can't take it all back
I know the way that you
You feel about me
And my friends can't seem to avoid my smile
As a red-faced girl walks into the diner
And now everyone laughs at an awkward moment
But it's comfortable to me

[Chorus]
So tell me
How does it feel to be
Right back in front of me
After it's been so very long?
It's strange to me
This face that I rarely see
Can look just the same to me
After it's been so very long
And these memories
The ones I thought I lost

[Verse 2]
So we dug ourself in a basement apartment
Hung up your paintings
Unpacked my guitar
And I thought right then "this is the only the start for us"
But we were both too young to act so old
So you went back to school
I went back on the road
You know that lonely hour was never as lonely as
As it was that day

[Chorus]
So tell me
How does it feel to be
Right back in front of me
After it's been so very long?
It's strange to me
This face that I rarely see
Can look just the same to me
After it's been so very long
And these memories
The ones I thought I lost

[Chorus]
So tell me
How does it feel to be
Right back in front of me
After it's been so very long?
It's strange to me
This face that I rarely see
Can look just the same to me
After it's been so very long
And these memories
The ones I thought I lost
