I met you that night there in October
She wanted to say hi and then come over
Fast-forward a few weeks
When we kissed, fell in love
Being too far away just was not good enough
So I stayed here
To be right here
Yeah, what if all the butterflies
Were just warning signs, regret it
And if I didn't leave you there
Would we still be here, I sweat it?
What if all my longing for more
Left my heart being sore
And if I didn't move away
Wouldn't you have stayed?
I've heard that you moved on
And got some new friends
You're singing all our songs with him on weekends
The tattoos on my skin
Ain't a sin but say sinner
Could have it all but it was not good enough
Should I stay here (should I stay here) without you near
Yeah, what if all the butterflies
Were just warning signs, regret it
And if I didn't leave you there
Would we still be here, I sweat it
What if all my longing for more
Left my heart being sore
And if I didn't move away
Wouldn't you have stayed
Yeah, what if we went back in time to keep trying?
Would we see the butterflies still flying?
Yeah, maybe was the wrong place at the wrong time
And maybe I was wrong then to call you mine
But even if we're back in time you'd go flying, you'd go flying
Yeah, what if all the butterflies
Were just warning signs, regret it
And if I didn't leave you there
Would we still be here, I sweat it
What if all my longing for more
Left my heart being sore (so sore)
And if I didn't move away
Wouldn't you have stayed? (Have stayed)
Yeah, what if we went back in time and kept trying?
Would we see the butterflies still flying?
