You're just a memory
I'm holdin' memories down
When we were climbing trees
And taking pics of the ground
When I was 17, and I was blinded by crowds
I was making melodies
And I was wishin' you'd come my way
Come my way, come my way, come my way
You were meant to be a memory, not to be my centerpiece
Started off as fantasy, and now we're done reality
It was not gonna be forever, five months and you felt it
Too much I couldn't handle that, pushed it down and said it back (mm)
Dreamin' about how it would end (inevitable in my head)
Wish I could say what you said, what you said
Dreamin' about how it would end (inevitable in my head)
Wish I could say what you said, what you said
You said you'd live as a memory and I don't want you to pretend
You said you'd live as a memory, I'm sorry I made no amends
Yesterday we made some memories, but I was scared of the end
Asking me if this would end with me, but I can't put that on my head
Head, head, I can't put that on my head (mm, mm)
Dark chocolate anatomy, writin' on my hand in henna
You had that calligraphy, I knew it would take a while
Sob story make-believe, writing fiction that's my style
Magnifying memories
Wishin' you'd come my way
Come my way, come my way, come my way
You were meant to be a memory, not to be my centerpiece
Started off as fantasy, and now we're done reality
It was not gonna be forever, five months and you felt it
Too much I couldn't handle that, pushed it down and said it back (mm)

(Mm, mm, ah)
(Mm, mm, ah)
Lookin' back at it, baby, I know
Lookin' back at it, baby, I know (know)
Lookin' back at it, baby, I know
Lookin' back at it, baby, I know (know)
(Mm, mm, mm, ah)
