Take it slow, tell me all how you've grown, just for me, could we all reminisce?
Better yet, here's a pen, make a list, fill it's full of all the things I've missed
Cause I could barely drive past the school, without stopping to think of you
And how we used to act the fool
But worst of all I wish I'd called at least a thousand times or more
Just to hear, what I've been missing
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we won't get back
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
Either way, I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
Either way I still wish you were here
Thinking back on the days when we all used to say
"I know anywhere's better than here"
In the back of the cla**, where we grew up too fast
Living life like there's nothing to fear
But the ice on the road, driving home all alone
Singing along to a song from three summers ago
The one that made you remember it
Now I'll always remember it
As the song that your life ended with
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we won't get back
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
Either way, I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
Either way I still wish you were here
And they say you're in a better place, but a better place is right here with me
Yeah, they say you're in a better place, too bad it's not what I believe
Cause a picture is all that I have
To remind me that you're never coming back
If I picture it now it just makes me sad
And right now I just wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
In the end, I just wish you were here
Yeah, they say you're in a better place
Either way I still wish you were here
Cause they say you're in a better place
In the end, I just wish you were here
