I was the one at the starting line.
You were still on the bench with your shoes untied (like it's a bad thing).
You were the one who would take it slow.
I was the guy saying "go, go, go" like it's a good thing (but it's a bad thing).

It's kinda hard to walk when you've so much to run for.

One of us still wasn't ready.
One said "yes" and the other said "maybe" (like it's a bad thing).
Two of us knew what was going on.
One of us, scared, and the other pushed on like it's a good thing (but it's a bad thing).

It's kinda hard to walk when you've so much to run for.
It's kinda hard to get inside when there's a lock on the door.
Well, it's one I've got the key for.

My love, you're mine and I knew you'd come along.
And the wall we're climbing isn't really high at all.
My love, I'm writing an epistle and a song to lay before you long before I'm gone.

I was the one in the waiting room,
quiet and hoping you'd be done soon (like it's a bad thing.)
You needed me to be patient... so I was,
and it's a good thing, a good thing.

It's kinda hard to walk when you've so much to run for.
It's kinda hard to get inside when there's a lock on the door.
But it's one I've got the key for.

My love, you're mine and I knew you'd come along.
And the wall we're climbing isn't really high at all.
My love, I'm writing an epistle and a song...

And now, we can ride with the top down.
And now, I might even let you drive.
And now is the greatest part of forever, 'cause we're so alive.

You live, you love...
My love, you're mine and I knew you'd come along.
And the wall we're climbing isn't really high at all.
My love, I'm writing an epistle and a song...

My love, you're mine and I knew you'd come along.
