Keith Urban - We Were

We Were

We were just a couple years short of the age by my name on a fake ID 

And still 'bout a hundred away from the day your daddy said you could run with me 

We were a couple of line steppers who just couldn't wait to step over the line 

Never thinkin' we wouldn't last I was your first and you were mine

And we were leather jackets hangin' onto a Harley two heartbeats in the moonlight 

(We were) both feet hangin' out over the edge of a water tower skyline 

At least there's a little bit of sweet in the bitter though a part of me is always gonna miss it 

I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were Mm-mm

We were gonna make it, weren't we, baby? Had it all laid out in our mind 

By the time we knew time was runnin' out we done run out of time 

And we were downtown saturday night last-call cover band

'Til the last song played, never thought we'd fade Like the stamp on the back of her hand 

We were her on my shoulders, lighter in the air "Pour Some Sugar On Me" 

(We were) top down at Johnson's field when she whispered that she wants me 

At least there's a little bit of sweet in the bitter though a part of me is always gonna miss her 

I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were Mm-mm

We were leather jackets hangin' onto a Harley two heartbeats in the moonlight 

(We were) both feet hangin' out over the edge to the water tower skyline 

At least there's a little bit of sweet in the bitter though a part of me is always gonna miss her 

I am who I am, I just miss who I was when we were 

Mm, yes, I do

Friends say, "Oh well, let that ship sail You gotta let go of her" 

Just wasn't meant to be But somewhere down deep I still believe 

That we were
