Met you in the back row Laughing at a joke that fell flat Passed notes on a torn page You wrote: You're stuck with me after that We learned how to drive in your dad's car Got lost But we didn't mind Windows down Wrong turn Right friend Right time You're my best friend Know the songs I hate and all my favorites Seen the mess I am on my worst days Stayed anyway Stayed anyway (hey!) If the whole world runs the other direction You'll be running with me Out of breath and Every road Every dead end Feels lighter with my best friend Cried on your old sofa When the first one broke my trust You said: I'll bring the ice cream You bring the names We'll discuss You've heard every dream Every wild plan Said: Do it, when I just froze You hold up a cracked mirror Where I still look gold You're my best friend Know the songs I hate and all my favorites Seen the mess I am on my worst days Stayed anyway Stayed anyway (oh, yeah) If the whole world runs the other direction You'll be running with me Out of breath and Every road Every dead end Feels lighter with my best friend If we end up far apart someday Different towns Different last names I'll still call You'll still say I've got time I've got space You're my best friend Know the songs I hate and all my favorites Seen the mess I am on my worst days Stayed anyway Stayed anyway (hey!) If the whole world runs the other direction You'll be running with me Out of breath and Every road Every dead end Feels lighter with my best friend
