this week i will give you a song by talor swift called mine.

Uh, uh, uh oh

You were in college working part time waiting tables
Left a small town, never looked back
I was a flight risk with the fear of fallin'
Wonderin' why we bother with love if it never lasts

I say "Can you believe it?"
As we're lyin' on the couch
The moment I can see it
Yes, yes I can see it now

Do you remember we were sittin' there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Flash forward and we're taking on the world together
And there's a drawer of my things at your place
You learned my secrets and you figure out why I'm guarded
You say we'll never make my parents' mistakes

But we've got bills to pay
We've got nothing figured out
When it was hard to take yes, yes
This is what I thought about

Do you remember we were sitting there by the water?
You put your arm around me for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you remember all the city lights on the water
You saw me start to believe for the first time
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Uh, uh, uh, oh

And I remember that fight 2:30 AM
You said everything was slippin' right out of our hands
I ran out crying and you followed me out into the street

Brace myself for the goodbye
Cause that's all I've ever known
Then you took me by surprise
You said "I'll never leave you alone"

You said
"I remember how we felt sittin' by the water
And every time I look at you it's like the first time
I fell in love with a careless man's careful daughter
She is the best thing that's ever been mine"

(Hold on, we'll make it last)
(Hold on, never turn back)
You made a rebel of a careless man's careful daughter
You are the best thing that's ever been mine

Do you believe it?
We're gonna make it now
And I can see it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)
I can see it now (see it now, see it now)
