love goes on

Brett Young

We were fifteen, you sat right next to me
We shared a textbook on Chemistry
You were my first, so it s no surprise
that you got the best of me
But what s perspective everyone s reckless
when they re just fifteen

I never thought the we d be
Seventeen, and you got your hands on me
Begging me to give you a reason to stay
Yeah, I was so naive, watching while you turned to leave

Didn t think a heart could heal after it breaks
But love goes on, the pages turn
Into songs, lessons learned
Sometimes it here, and then it s gone

But that s okay, love goes on
Love goes on
I had my doubts, I was hard to get to when I first met you
That night in old town

I was defensive, but you were relentless
in breaking my guard down
You asked me who broke it, stole some emotions
Well, I d have to recount

I never thought that I d bring
Seventeen all the way to you and me
Thinking history repeats and you d never stay
You said, You re so naive, thinking I could ever leave

Don t you know a heart can heal after it breaks
And love goes on, pages turn
Into songs, lessons learned
Sometimes it here, and then it s gone

But that s okay, love goes on
Love goes on
Yeah-yeah
When it s here and then it s gone

Yeah-yeah
And you think you ve lost the one
Yeah-yeah
Ah, when all is said and done

Yeah-yeah- yeah
Love goes on, the pages turn
Into songs, lessons learned
Sometimes it here, and then it s gone

But that s okay, love goes on
Love goes on, the pages turn
Into songs, lessons learned
Sometimes it here, and then it s gone

But it s okay, yeah, love goes on
Love goes on
Love goes on
Love goes on
