remember when from innocence & wonder by running from something

We met in July on that driveway, both knowing it was fate
High school sweethearts and bestest of friends
We took advantage of everyday, we start planning our lives
Married and happy, our love transcends
Road trips, movies, and long nights, we were inseparable
We felt like we were in the best of hands
Blacking out after bar fights, you always had my back
Even if I was wrong you'd understand

Remember when we were laughing with our toes in the sand
Remember when you would always love to hold my hand
Remember when we were two parts of a whole
Remember all the ways that we were before
I can

We bought our house in a few years, we made it all our own
We had two dogs and loved them just like kids
Enjoying all of the good times, but life will take it's toll
We're ready for whatever it may bring
But like that house we loved so much, there's always what's unseen
The foundations of our lives were crumbling

So I drive this empty highway, pretend its all okay
Without you I can't help but feel this way
Cause I never could recover, I doubt I ever will
Without you here time's always standing still
But I'm truly happy for you, you finally found someone
To give you everything you wanted from
This life I tried to give you, it always came undone
I know you hate the person I've become
But I wish you would have told me, I would have tried to chance
I guess you knew I couldn't either way
But now those days are over, long since gone
I'm a ghost of who I was
The hardest part is knowing it's my fault

Remember when we were laughing with our toes in the sand
Remember when you would always love to hold my hand
Remember when we were two halves of a whole
Remember all the ways that we were before
Remember when I was always passing out on the floor
Remember when I wasn't there like I was before
Remember when I wouldn't shoulder any guilt
Remember taking a shit on the life that we built
Do I even remember what I did it fore
You wasted years on me, we could have had so much more
Looking back on our time there's so much I would change
Do you remember the good or is it only the pain

I am truly happy for you
You finally got your dream
And I know the reasons why it wasn't me
I couldn't ever return all the love you gave
And now there's nothing left in me to save
