D D/C#
Ran into you yesterday
C
Memories rushed through my brain

It’s starting to hit me, now you’re not with me, I realized I made a mistake
D/C# C
I thought that I needed some space
C
But I just let love go to waste
G Em
It’s so crystal clear now, that I need you here now, I got to get you back today
