I heard that you're back in town
For the holidays at your parents' house
The last time we spoke was three years ago
But sometimes I still think about
Sneaking out the window when we were more than friends
What if one day we start again?
I don't know why, but I still believe in you and I (you and I)
And I don't know how, but I hope that one day you'll come back around (back around)
And you'll say, "Every road I ever take leads to you, it's all the same
You're the one that got away"
I don't know why, but I still believe our stars will align
'Cause I'm just the right person, wrong time
(Two, three, let's go)
Sometimes when I close my eyes
I picture us in 20 years time
Where it all worked out, we bought a house and settled down
I know we could do it if we tried
Tried to grow a little wiser, learn from our mistakes
I can't help but wanna say
I don't know why, but I still believe in you and I (you and I)
And I don't know how, but I hope that one day you'll come back around
(Back around)
And you'll say, "Every road I ever take leads to you, it's all the same
You're the one that got away"
I don't know why, but I still believe our stars will align
'Cause I'm just the right person, wrong time
London City, late nights, tipsy
All these memories never leave me
My friends, your place, young dumb mistakes
All these memories, I wish we'd still make
I don't know why, but I still believe in you and I
I don't know how, but I hope that one day you'll come back around (back around)
And you'll say, "Every road I ever take leads to you, it's all the same
You're the one that got away"
I don't know why, but I still believe our stars will align
'Cause I'm just the right person, wrong time
