I saw picket fences
The house we'd live in
And an old oak tree in the front yard with a swing for the kids
I saw rustic, wood frames
Up and down the hallways
Of a day-long celebration where I'd take your last name
But guess I was wrong
'Cause all along
You were thinking it's over
I was thinking it's you
You were thinking goodbye
I was thinking"I do"
'Cause I never thought
That you'd be gone
But while I was looking at forever
You weren't looking past December
I saw reservations
For beach vacations
With an ocean and a sunset view from where we're laying
I saw fiftieth gold
Us growing old
From planting seeds in our twenties to watching roots unfold
But guess I was wrong
'Cause all along
You were thinking it's over
I was thinking it's you
You were thinking goodbye
I was thinking"I do"
'Cause I never thought
That you'd be gone
But while I was looking at forever
You weren't looking past December
I was falling right in
You were falling right out
I was caught up in this
You were caught up in doubt
I was ready to run
You were ready to walk
I called you the one
You called it all off
I guess I was wrong
'Cause all along
You were thinking it's over
I was thinking it's you
You were thinking goodbye
I was thinking"I do"
'Cause I never thought
That you'd be gone
But while I was looking at forever
You weren't looking past December
Yeah, I thought we would last forever
But you weren't looking past December
