American Dream

I'll confess tonight you're all that's on my mind
 I know these roof top nights could last forever
 We watched the seasons change,
 We saw the distance pull us away,
 From all we shared together
 Right now is all we have,
 You better make this count
 These are the moments I wish I could forget you.
 I think back to the nights
 I looked into your bright green eyes
 And you said, "let's run away"
 It's nine AM the sun won't rise for
 Three more hours Pacific time
 You said, "let's run away"
 I picked apart every word that you said
 I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
 The way you are leaves me counting the days
 'Til the next time this distance will be a memory
 Right now is all we have,
 You better make this count
 These are the moments I wish I could forget you.
 I think back to the nights
 I looked into your bright green eyes
 And you said, "let's run away"
 It's nine AM the sun won't rise for
 Three more hours Pacific time
 You said, "let's run away"
 Where have you been?
 (Where have you been?)
 I think back to the nights
 I looked into your bright green eyes
 And you said, "let's run away"
 It's nine AM the sun won't rise for
 Three more hours Pacific time
 You said, "let's run away"
