You Were - Field Guide

You were the one I wanted

Even if I didn't know it yet

You told me sweetly

Your head on my chest

Then we did that weekly

Till it was all a mess

And you asked me sweetly

Does it still make sense

I'm having a hard time keeping

This all in check

But I love you deeply

You took my hand so gently

We fell in love accidentally

I don't ever want to keep you waiting

You don't ever want to change my mind

I guess we're living in a love that's fading

We'll be dead by the summertime

If you ever want to start things over

If you ever want to try again

You can call me anytime of day girl

Yeah you still got a friend

This wasn't what I wanted

But sometimes that's what you get

Yeah it's all a whirlwind

The memories are all that's left

Sometimes I can't help but wonder

Do you have a new lover yet

It's just the cost of living

And time spent

You took my hand so gently

We fell in love accidentally

I don't ever want to keep you waiting

And you don't ever want to change my mind

I guess we're living in a love that's fading

We'll be dead by the summertime

But if you ever want to start things over

If you ever want to try again

You can call me anytime of day girl

Yeah you still got a friend
