she met me at the bridge
in the middle of the day
with the sun and the heat
she'd never looked so sweet
my thoughts they drifted
following my eyes
and following her curves
for the first time
love won't wait
when you've known for years
and lust breaks free
when you take away fear
we lied together
and discovered ourselves
trying to hide
what we can't work out
because the world is big
and we felt so small
so we climbed on each other
until we felt tall
driving at night
on the loneliest street
i held her hand
in the passenger's seat
if life catches up
and the fairytale ends
at least we took a chance
and maybe we'll be friends
castles that we build
are only in the sand
and time is the tide
and the ocean at the end
that flows from the river
and underneath the bridge
back to the time
when we were just kids
awake in the night
staring up at the stars
the moment was ours
to forget about the risk
of the first kiss
