You were always on the edge startin' up a fire
I was working so hard walkin’ on a wire
You had a way about you girl
Ready to take on the whole damn world
I was a couple years behind

I was playin it cool, living by the book
You were cussin' up a storm, throwing left hooks
Whenever I'm giving up inside
I remember that fearless in your eye
I’m glad I've got some of that in mine

Hey, I wish we were closer
Maybe when we're older
We can love, we can laugh together
Do you know how bad I want to
The more I think about you?
Maybe we're not so far away

I used to think you and me, we were day and night
I was keepin' the peace, you were picking the fight
Now we're living 2, 000 miles apart
But you're still in my dreams stealin' my heart
Even after all this time

Hey, I wish we were closer
Maybe when we’re older
We can love, we can laugh together
Do you know how bad I want to
The more I think about you?
Maybe we’re not so far away

We were young and we were broken
Didn't know how to love
Now we’re healing and our hearts are open
I can't help it

I wish we were closer
Maybe when we're older
We can love, we can laugh together
Do you know how bad I want to
The more I think about you?
Maybe we're not, oh
Hey, I wish we were closer
Maybe when we’re older
We can love, we can laugh together
Do ya know how bad I want to
The more I think about you?
Maybe we're not so far away

Maybe we're not so far away
Maybe we're not so far away
