It was just yesterday
That I was asking
If you wanted to play tag
With me
Come on I'll chase you up
The tallest slide
Bet you can't catch me
But hey
Do you wanna be my friend
Do you remember when
We'd bike the rides
Play all day
Laugh so hard
That we'd start to cry
And then we'd go and get some ice cream
Cuz
It melts away the sadness, angst or fears that we concede
But we got older
And days they felt too short
Some were colder
Than the nights that were before
Friends we're leaving all the time
Nothing sad about that
Right
Why do we meet the people that we meet
When they were never meant to stay
What is the point of missing them
When they're gonna go away
Is there a reason for this misery
Or is this some twisted dream
All I know how to do is let it melt
Away like ice cream
Maybe it's been a hot minute
But I remember getting Chickfila with you
And then we'd vent about our problems
Like how dare they say that? Your crush on Chad
How he wore such ugly shoes
And then we'd laugh about it all
The next day
That was the freaking best part of this whole entire thing
Nothing too big or small could never ever get in between
Picture perfect moments that I know I might
Not ever see again
So I hold these treasures close and closer hoping this is not the end
Hoping this is not the end
Hoping this is not the end
Hoping this is not the end
Why do we meet the people that we meet
When they were never meant to stay
What is the point of missing them
When they're gonna go away
Is there a reason for this misery
Is there
Is there a reason for all the pain
I'm afraid that as we move on with our lives
That they'll forget all about me
They all begin to drop like flies as we go
Our separate ways
This world will keep on spinning
We'll be okay eventually
Till then I wait
And I dream
About my silly ice cream
Hoping this is not, hoping this is not, hoping this is not the end
Why do we meet the people that we meet
When they were never meant to stay
What is the point of missing them
When they're gonna go away
Is there a reason for this misery
Or is this some twisted dream
All I know how to do is let it
Melt away like ice cream
