The night we met, I told you I was leaving
Didn't know that that news would mean nothing to you
You were already planning your exit
Told me you guessed we had no time to lose
I never expected to love that quick
Forever just wasn't exactly the smart thing to do
But when I think back on that night I asked you to pick up and follow me
I can't help but imagine what life would be like if I didn't have you
You could be back in the city I met you
You could be back in the place you were born
You could be speaking a language I don't know
Doing just fine in another man's arms
If you could be there
And if you could be here
Well I'm happy you're here
Soon it will be that time again
To prove that I love you to strangers in grey rooms with fluorescent lights
And however long it takes and whatever the answer is
I'll go wherever you are to be with you for the rest of my life
You could be back in the city I met you
You could be back in the place you were born
You could be speaking a language I don't know
Doing just fine in another man's arms
We might have never decided to do this
I might have never asked you to leave home
We could have stayed on the paths we were both on
Just crossing that one Summer we were in love
But if you could be there
And if you could be here
And if I could have that
And if you could have him
And if we could be then
And if we could be here
Well I'm happy we're here
You could be back in the city I met you
You could be back in the place you were born
We could have stayed on the paths we were both on
Just crossing that one Summer we were in love
But if you could be there
And if you could be here
And if I could have that
And if you could have him
But no matter why
Or how you got here
I'm just happy you're here
