6 Years Lyrics by James TW

Heartbeat Changes

2021

[Verse 1]
I thought when you break up, you're not supposed to make up
You let all your feelings go
Forget what you been through, start over brand new
As someone you used to know
I don't wanna be that way, feel down when I hear your name
'Cause we had good times together
And I know that feelings change
We won't ever be the same
But I don't wanna forget you

[Chorus]
'Cause you were six years of my life
I thought you'd have my kids and you'd be my wife
And I'll learn to live without you
But I still care about you
'Cause we were lovers, two best friends
And if I could, I'd do it all again
So I just wanted to say this
Even though we didn't make it
If you need someone to dry your tears
Then I'll always be right here

[Verse 2]
We sure got some history
And nobody knows me
Quite like the way you do
You show up in my dreams
I don't know what it means
But I think they're telling me, "Hold onto you"
Deep down I wanna try
To save what we left behind
Just a little bit of magic
If I'm honest it don't feel right
That after we say goodbye
We act like it never happened

[Chorus]
'Cause you were six years of my life
I thought you'd have my kids and you'd be my wife
And I'll learn to live without you
But I still care about you
'Cause we were lovers, two best friends
And if I could, I'd do it all again
So I just wanted to say this
Even though we didn't make it
If you need someone to dry your tears
Then I'll always be right here

[Bridge]
Mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here
Mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here
Mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here
Mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here, mm-hmm, right here

[Outro]
Six years (Right here, right here, right here)
That's a lot of love, lot of smiles, and lot of tears
Six years (Right here, right here, right here)
And I'll always be so proud that we made it
Six years (Right here, right here, right here)
That's a lot of love, lot of smiles, and lot of tears
Six years (Right here, right here, right here)
And I'll always be so proud that we made it
