Maybe you saw me for me
And you'll run cuz I'm too much for me
You see the issues that I see?
These memories create feelings
I can't forget or remember
Those months before September
They're all some lost dream
That won't appear for me
I couldn't count or find these chances
If I looked in the stars
Cuz these hopes of mine have gone too far

Things when you're a kid are so much simpler
Why couldn't I have met you then?
When this wasn't hidden
And I could still control my heart from these distractions
Oh common interest actions
It's ridiculous this closeness
I have after only days
You're my friend and yet not
In so very many ways
It's crazy this collision
It's me another vision

I can't tell if you're here now to stay
But this curiosity worries me
It keeps me safe and dangerous
This territory is new to us
I find it hard to search through
But easy to look into
I don't want to let you go
It's you that I barely know
Still I know too much, so much
I wouldn't want to give you up

Maybe you saw me for me
And you'll run cuz I'm too much for me
You see the issues that I see?
These memories create feelings
I can't forget or remember
Those months before September
They're all some lost dream
That won't appear for me
I couldn't count or find these chances
If I looked in the stars
Cuz these hopes of mine have gone too far

If I had known you that long ago
Things might not have changed like now
We might not have so much keeping us together
But I'll always wonder how?
How'd we never meet till now?

Why? Why'd I have to wait to meet this guy?
So alike in my mind
He's that different special kind
My real best friend
He's there when I need him
And yet only knowing so often
It's a memory in my hand
I won't leave it alone to stand
This time it's gonna be alright
I'm taking my memories with me through the rest of this life

But Maybe you saw me for me
And you'll run cuz I'm too much for me
You see the issues that I see?
These memories create feelings
I can't forget or remember
Those months before September
They're all some lost dream
That won't appear for me
I couldn't count or find these chances
If I looked in the stars
Cuz these hopes of mine have gone too far
Oh I hope they haven't gone too far
