[Verse 1]
Blue jeans, white shirt
Walked into the room, you know you make my eyes burn
It was like James Dean for sure
You're so fresh to death and sick as cancer
You were sorta punk rock, I grew up on hip hop
You fit me better than my favourite sweater
And I know that love is mean, and love hurts
But I still remember that day we met in December, oh baby
[Hook]
I will love you 'til the end of time
I would wait a million years
Promise you'll remember that you're mine
Baby can't you see through the tears
Love you more than those bitches before
Say you'll remember, say you'll remember
Oh baby who, I will love you 'til the end of time
[Verse 2]
Big dreams, gangsta
Said you had to leave to start your life over
I was like, no please, stay here
We don't need no money, we could make it all work
But he headed out on Sunday, said he'd come home Monday
I stay up waiting, anticipating and pacing
But he was chasing paper
Caught up in the game, it was the last I heard
[Hook]
[Verse 3]
You went out every night and baby that's alright
I told you that no matter what you did I'd be by your side
Cause I'mma ride or die, whether you fail or fly
Well shit, at least you tried, but when you walked out the door
A piece of me died, told you I wanted more
That's not what I had in mind, just want it like before
We were dancing all night then they took you away
Stole you out of my life, you just need to remember
