I remember it was a cold November
Where I would meet you at the top of your road
That was the girl I knew
The girl I loved
Winter nights on busy streets
Buying records and nighttime treats
That was us

I wish I could've stayed there all my life
Sitting under that bridge light
We were just 16
But I found out what love means to me
What loves means to me

Your old man got sick
And I wanted to help you through it
Told you I would stay by your side
But time after time it took a tole on us
After he was gone
We were becoming what I was so scared
A fear since I was born

I wish I could've stayed there all my life
Sitting under that bridge light
We were just 16
But I found out what love means to me
What loves means to me
