Flyaways - Best Life Lyrics

I was reading a letter you wrote me
When we were seventeen
Flipping through the memories
How you got away from me
We tried to get by
We tried

You're probably listening right now
You're wondering
If this is the boy you let down
If this is the song you're in
You tried to get by
And that's alright

I pushed you away night after night
And after all those days and those fights
I blamed you for leaving and in time
Living your best life

I hope you're listening right now
And know what I mean
When I say I miss the stars
And laughing at the buoyancy
We tried to get by
And that's alright

I pushed you away night after night
But I'd pull you back in after each fight
And the memories are my only light, some nights
From my best life

I pushed you away night after nigh
But I'll pull you back in without a fight
And though I know those days are behind
I hope you'll live our best life
