If it were up to me,

you and I would both be free.

If it were up to me,

you and I would be

sitting in a car that neither of us have,

listening to the songs that we both know,

looking and smiling at each other as we drive down the dark road

If it were up to me,

you and I woud both know that that's how it was meant to be

If it were up to me,

you would no longer be in pain.

If it were up to me,

you'd be the reason my tears no longer fall like rain

If it were up to me,

we'd be laying in bed, fingers intertwined, laughing at jokes only we'd understand

If it were up to me,

there wouldn't be another casualty

Because when I think of me and you,

I feel like everything has been tried and true

When I think of you and me,

I think of how young and dumb we can be

Staring at the ceiling, finding who we are, promising to never break each other's hearts

If it were up to me, that's the way it would be
