just long enough

it only took you a second

to get under my skin

put a bookmark in the page of the shoes that i was in

at the time it was nothing

but with some distance on it

man

its something that i can't forget

still wondering where it went

cause it was just long enough to mess me up

if i let my heart go there

from who we were running around with to the feeling in the air

lights in your eyes on a field on friday

goodbye

leaves turn green to red

yeah

like i said

it wasn't forever

but whatever it was

was just long enough

it was just long enough

your favorite verse in a song coming on the radio

you stole a drag from my cigarette

and you hope your mom don't know

then a ride on the backstreets

heart racing in the backseats

wish you wouldn't ever fade away

but i guess it never does

when it's just long enough to mess me up

if i let my heart go there

from who we were running around with to the feeling in the air

lights in your eyes on a field on friday

goodbye

leaves turn green to red

yeah

like i said

it wasn't forever

but whatever it was

was just long enough

it was just long enough

there's days that come and go and you never think about them again

but there's some you can't let go

there's day that come and go and you never think

but then there's the ones that wake you up and take you back

while i get sad

it's just long enough to mess me up if i let my heart go there

from who we were running around with to the feeling in the air

lights in your eyes on a field on friday

goodbye

leaves turn green to red

yeah

like i said

it wasn't forever

but whatever it was

was just long enough

it was just long enough

it was just long enough

it was just long enough

yeah

only took you a second

it was just long enough
