"Favorite Part" lyrics

The older that we get
The less things last forever
We're drifting now my friend
I only pray we drift together
And even if we don't
I hope that you'd remember
How we cried until we laughed last December

And I try to say
I'm not how you see me
I'm reminiscing you before you're gone
I hit the brakes
Scared I'm not breathing
I'll love you now with fear
It won't be long

Can we pause right here
It's my favorite part
Just in case right now
Is the best that we are
Maybe then someday wouldn't feel so far
Paint me in the light of a passing car

If one day all we have
Is just the memory of us two
You can tell the story coldly
But don't say I didn't love you
Time will have its way
But only we will ever know
How we cried until we laughed I know that I do

And I gotta say
I hope that you see me
When you're driving through
The hell that we called home

Can we pause right here
It's my favorite part
Just in case right now
Is the best that we are
Maybe then someday wouldn't feel so far
Paint me in the light of a passing car

The older that we get
The less things last forever
We're drifting now my friend
I only pray we drift together
And even if we don't
I hope that you'd remember
Even just a moment made me better

Can we pause right here
It's my favorite part
Just in case right now
Is the best that we are
Maybe then someday wouldn't feel so far
Paint me in the light of a passing car
