Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
toi were in college, working part-time, waiting tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk, with a fear of fallin'
Wondering why we bother with love, if it never lasts
I say, "can toi believe it?"
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment, I can see it
Yes, yes, I can see it now
Do toi remember, we were sittin', there par the water?
toi put your arm around me for the first time
toi made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
toi are the best thing, that's ever been mine
Flash forward, and we're takin' on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
toi learn my secrets and toi figure out why I'm guarded
toi say we'll never make my parents' mistakes
And we got bills to pay
We got nothin' figured out
When it was hard to take
Yes, yes
This is what I thought about
Do toi remember, we were sittin' there, par the water?
toi put your arm around me, for the first time
toi made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
toi are the best thing, that's ever been mine
Do toi remember all the city lights on the water?
toi saw me start to believe, for the first time
toi made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
toi are the best thing, that's ever been mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh
And I remember that fight, two-thirty a.m.
'Cause everything was slipping right out of our hands
I ran out, crying, and toi followed me out into the street
Braced myself for the goodbye,
'Cause that's all I've ever known
Then, toi took me par surprise
toi said, "I'll never leave toi alone"
toi said, "I remember how we felt, sitting par the water.
And every time I look at you, it's like the first time.
I fell in l’amour with a careless man's careful daughter.
She is the best thing that's ever been mine."
toi made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
toi are the best thing, that's ever been mine
Do toi believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
(I can see it now)

We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
(I can see it now)
I don't know what I want, so don't ask me
Cause I'm still trying to figure it out
Don't know what's down this road, I'm just walking
Trying to see through the rain coming down
Even though I'm not the only one
Who feels the way I do
[Chorus:]
I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong, oh but life goes on
I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in
This world
Got the radio on, my old blue jeans
And I'm wearing my cœur, coeur on my sleeve
Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine
Could toi tell me what plus do I need
And tomorrow's just a mystery, oh yeah
But that's ok
[Repeat Chorus]
Maybe I'm just a girl on a mission
But I'm ready to fly
[Repeat Chorus]
Cause I'm still trying to figure it out
Don't know what's down this road, I'm just walking
Trying to see through the rain coming down
Even though I'm not the only one
Who feels the way I do
[Chorus:]
I'm alone, on my own, and that's all I know
I'll be strong, I'll be wrong, oh but life goes on
I'm just a girl, trying to find a place in
This world
Got the radio on, my old blue jeans
And I'm wearing my cœur, coeur on my sleeve
Feeling lucky today, got the sunshine
Could toi tell me what plus do I need
And tomorrow's just a mystery, oh yeah
But that's ok
[Repeat Chorus]
Maybe I'm just a girl on a mission
But I'm ready to fly
[Repeat Chorus]
