It was from the get-to-know-yous
To the crying about childhood
Looking around at new faces
To the nights when we'd turn red
Laughing about how stupid we are
Than the world ever knew possible
Sleepovers with no clothes on
Because you dared us but really we just wanted to anyways
Will never find a way out of my heart
Just knowing that one kiss of a boy
Will have us talking for hours at night
I almost laugh as I think
Of all the fun times still ahead of us
I don't wanna take any of this for granted but
I don't know how to cherish it more than I do
Putting make-up on each other though none of us need it
And pretending we actually have no friends
Pretending we're not part of the
Well-liked, well-dressed, good-everything
We have all been blessed with
It doesnt seem to matter to us after we start laughing
And I wonder if its like this for other people
But I don't really care
I try to ask God to make this all last
But I know it will end eventually
So I laugh at everything too much and hug everyone too much
And hold on to these moments
Like a photograph of
Life
