[Intro] [Verse 1] We wrote our names in the sand that night You were laughing, I was trying not to look too long I got that feeling low in my stomach Like the ground just learned my name It was new and it was easy And I thought, this could be it [Chorus] I want that night back I want your laugh back I want the start, not the ending we got If I could make it right I would If I could stay I would I’d walk through the rest of it with you Come back to the beach with me Let’s write it down again [Verse 2] Now I go there and the water’s moved Our names are gone like you were never here Same air, same dark, no butterflies Just that hollow where the good part was I keep thinking you misread me I keep thinking you walked too soon [Chorus] I want that night back I want your laugh back I want the start, not the ending we got If I could make it right I would If I could stay I would I’d walk through the rest of it with you Come back to the beach with me Let’s write it down again [Bridge] I don’t need the whole forever tonight I just need you to turn around Before this becomes the story Instead of the life [Chorus] I want that night back I want your laugh back I want the start, not the ending we got If I could make it right I would I’d walk through the rest of it with you Come back to the beach with me Write our names in the sand And this time don’t walk off. [Outro]
