lyrics

I remember the first time I saw you, but now I can't look right at you
We're in the same room but we act like we're strangers now
I wish I could walk right to you, hug you and say that I miss you
But I know that I can't cause the we that we were's not around

So I put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And signed it like everything is okay, but we both know it's not
Don't act you forgot

I'm sorry that I let it get like, the way that it's been for quite a while
Somehow fighting for you became fighting you instead
But even after all the things that I can't take back
And all the things we've said that we regret
If I could go back, I'd still choose you again

So I put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And signed it like everything is okay, but we both know it's not
Don't act you forgot

That drive home from Kentucky, your head on my shoulder
If only for a second, and the kiss you probably don't remember
Last year on your birthday outside on the sidewalk
When you lost your wallet, and I started falling
That night at the airport, I still wish you'd wear your seatbelt
And I'd do anything just to hear you say we're okay

So I put a card in your mailbox for your birthday
And signed it like everything is okay, but we both know it's not
Don't act you forgot
Last year on the corner of 8th and Broadway when you were upset
And I kept saying, "It's all gonna be alright"
But now it's not alright
I said it'd be alright
But now we're not alright
