We were high school friends and high school lovers Got a fifth of Jack from your big brother Didn't know that cop was undercover Till he pressed your hands against each other And you were my very first love And I thought you'd be my last Till I found out that days go fast How did we get here and how did we get back? Wish I could do it all again We were just kids then, doing our best when All of the rest got in the way And I missed my best friend, drunk at the dead end All of us just went out our way How did we get here and how did we get back? We were high school friends and high school lovers And I thought we'd ring, we'd find each other Oh, imagine if we went to the same college Would we still lock lips? Maybe you would hate my guts Oh no, I'll never know How did we get here and how did we get back? Wish I could do it all again We were just kids then, doing our best when All of the rest got in the way And I missed my best friend, drunk at the All of us just went out our way How did we get here and how did we get back? How did we get here and how did we get back?
