Clear blue skies in a small town
Yellow flowers in my hair
I was five, rolling on the ground
Our laughter filled the air
I had a pretty good
Pretty good, pretty good childhood
I had a pretty nice
Pretty nice early life
So when you went your separate ways
Don't say it was all just a waste
I know it's for the best
"You'll understand when you're grown"
They said to me one time
I'd like to think that I have multiple homes
Instead of a broken one
I had a pretty good
Pretty good, pretty good childhood
I had pretty sweet
Pretty sweet memories
So when you went your separate ways
Don't say it was all just a waste
Cause when it ends I know it's for the best
It wasn't meant to last
I know I know I know it's for the best
There's a hole in my soul
But I'm fine, I've learned to cope
You saw it as failure
But I keep all our pictures in my drawers
So when you went your separate ways
Don't say it was all just a waste
Cause when it ends
I know you did your best
It wasn't meant to last
I know I know I know it's for the best
I know I know I know you did your best
