We Had Everything

Compositor: Katherine Taylor Buxton

I remember falling in love with you back in the summer
Sticks in my mind like the fourth of July when I knew I was a goner
I, I

Felt like swimming backwards in time when all of life was new
Even the agents at tsa took on a rosy hue
I, I, I, mmm

And I remember the photo you took of me
When I was sitting behind you, both on one seat
Like we were riding to somewhere we both could see
We had everything

Now I'm sitting across from you and everything looks different
The walls, they have changed, and the sky says rain, but the love is still existing
I, I

And I remember the night up in Malibu
You drove all the way home with my hand on you
There was nothing I wasn’t willing to lose
We had everything
I’d never take it for granted ‘cause all I knew
Is there was no better feeling than loving you
There’s nothing I’d ever trade if you paid me to
We had everything

And I know when I'm old, I’ll look back and I’ll tell my kids about it
How love always moves, but once it’s found you, you’ll never be without it

And I remember the words that you said to me
As I laid there beside you there on the beach
You said I’d wait for you always, guaranteed
‘Cause you’re everything
I’d never take it for granted ‘cause all I knew
Is there was no better feeling than loving you
There’s nothing I’d ever trade if you paid me to
We had everything
We had everything
