long way home

I took the long way home after the party
 I see your pretty eyes smiling in the backseat
 But I know you're not really there
 It's just your ghost in my head playing games
 So I close my eyes and pretend it's me and you again
 Oh, take me back to the first time you said "I love you"
 I just want to feel your heartbeat close to my body
 God, I'm so mad at the world for taking you away, taking you away
 Oh, take me back to the first time you said "I love you"
 Oh, I loved you
 Knocked on the door and got met by the face of your parents
 Saw that it brought thеm to tears when I brought a presеnt
 I know that it's kind of weird to celebrate life without you, life without, life without
 We all try to ignore the elephant in the room
 Oh, take me back to the first time you said "I love you," yeah, I love you
 I just want to feel your heartbeat close to my body, oh, my body
 God, I'm so mad at the world for taking you away, taking you away
 Oh, take me back to the first time you said "I love you"
 Know I can't change
 The past or the pain
 But I tried to
 Talk to god who
 Said you will stay
 That I'll be ok
 I have to believe what he says
 I took the long way home after the party
 Looked in your eyes and I said "I see you soon darling"
