American Dream (Acoustic) Lyrics

I'll confess tonight you're all thats on my mind
I know these roof top nights could last forever.
we watched the seasons change, we saw the distance pull us away,
from all we shared together.

Right now is all we have you better make this count
these are the moments i wish i could forget you.

I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
lets run away.
its 9am the sun wont rise for 3 more hours pacific time you said
lets run away.

I picked apart every word that you said
I dissected each sentence but kept coming up empty
the way you are leaves me counting the days
till the next time this distance will be a memory

Right now is all we have you better make this count
these are the moments i wish i could forget you.

I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
lets run away.
its 9am the sun wont rise for 3 more hours pacific time you said
lets run away.

I should've known from the start
that the scars from this distance would show
And we both know
We were the best friends singing along together like this
whoa-oa-oa-oa
Whoa-oa-oa-oa

I think back to the nights I looked into your bright green eyes and you said,
lets run away.
its 9am the sun wont rise for 3 more hours pacific time you said
lets run away
lets run away
