Brandi Carlile - That Year

I must have been sleeping
I must have been drinking
I haven't been dreaming about you for years
There was a sharp turn and a sunburn
I was too cool for high school that year
That year

It must have have been new years
No one invited you
You took things too far
But I missed you and your antics
You were lonesome and blue eyed
And so special to us

You should have taken a long break
Instead of a long drop from a high place
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say it
Your my friend again

Said, he forgave you, I said, I hated you
He was the bigger man, I was sixteen
All the innocence it took for
You to finally made the year book that year
That year

You could have taken some time away
Instead of a long drop, instead of a leap of faith
Ten years I never spoke your name
Now it feels good to say that
Your my friend again
Your my friend again

I was angry, I was a Baptist
I was a daughter, I was wrong
