Growing up never made much sense to me
But dealing with this life I lead
Making oh so many plans
That never seem to come true in the end
And yeah I know that we were young
But age doesn't mean much when you're truly in love
Hold on to that feeling that I always had
And hope that one day I will see you again
I know that one day I will see you again
And I'll keep holding my breath

So let's trace those steps back to where we first met
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone 

I tried my luck at so many things
I've seen enough joy to make you wanna sing
I've hit the highest of highs, the lowest of lows
But now I'm sick and tired of being alone
And as I trace those steps, the same very steps
That lead up to the room where we once slept
I've got this pain in my chest
This pain that's too deep to keep direct
Oh so I'll keep holding my breath 

I'll trace those steps back to where we first met
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone 

Oh my God, this hurts like hell 
And how am I supposed to tell myself
That if I keep on singing my way through this
That one day, I'll be fine
One day, I'll be fine

So I'll trace those steps back to where we first met
A place I'll never forget cause you and I we can't let
All this space between a perfect you and perfect me 
It's just so hard to believe that you're gone 

One good thing about the road is that it opens up your eyes
It will make you miss your home and everything that flies
In your heart will be as clear as all of heaven's days 
Cause I believe that you're not gone 
You're right here
