[Verse 1]
Remembering the day I met you
Hanging by the park in June
You were waiting for a friend to show
And I said "Can I stand here too?"

The afternoon slipped away
We talked about Hemingway
I wish the joke could start over
Cause December everything changed

[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know, we can make it through this
And I know, I know, they said we can't do this
Who are they to say that we're too
Young to cherish love like this and

[Chorus]
I say, softly
You don't have to wait
I'm looking out
To save you too
And you say, softly
Hope it can stop fear
I'm freaking out
And I know, it's too soon
But I'm happy now

[Verse 2]
I suppose we never get the chance to
Have a choice but we'll push through
The words that nearly pulled us under
They give breath to something new
I know that you won't be alone
You won't be fighting this on your own
There's moments that you were sure of
And there's more that you don't know

[Pre-Chorus]
I know, I know, we can make it through this
And I know, I know, they said we can't do this
Who are they to say that we're too
Young to cherish love like this and

[Chorus]
I say, softly
You don't have to wait
I'm looking out
To save you too
And you say, softly
Hope it can stop fear
I'm freaking out
And I know, it's too soon
But I'm happy now

[Bridge]
But I'm happy now
I know, I know, we can make it through this
And I know, I know, they said we can't do it
We know we're not giving up
Cause they don't know we're better off when

[Chorus]
I say, softly
You don't have to wait
I'm looking out
To save you too
And you say, softly
Hope it can stop fear
I'm freaking out
And I know, it's too soon
But I'm happy now

But I'm happy now
But I'm happy now
