Bright lights, big city
  Was quite extraordinary
  The drive was pretty
  I was in perfect company
  The love of a lifetime
  Since we were elementary friends
  The one with the bright eyes
  
  Why can't I be optimistic
  I tried to find the logic logically
  I had a dream and I could not shake it
  I was standing up there naked
  
  There's fear in the truth at hand, frozen I forgot to understand
  The live keep living growing older more into a man
  And I let her grow away from me
  
  Love love is not pretending
  Time time was meant for mending
  Memories into all is satisfactory
  Healthy smiles fill the page the day we spent in miles
  And I let her drive away from me
  
  The one with the bright eyes
  Laughed her way inside this music box
  Stored away in the corner of my heart And I let her get away from me
  But I'll never take that day away from me
