I remember I was five years old,
Leaves were falling in the street,
I was peddling when you let go,
You running after me,
Said you need to slow down, darling,
Think about out first,
Cuz when you fall too fast,
It’s gonna hurt,
You taught me to dream,
Taught me to love,
You taught me to say it’s never say it’s over til done,
Taught me to laugh,
Taught me to cry,
Taught me that everything is gonna be alright,
The only thing that you forgot to,
Is teach me how to live without you,
I remember being Sweet sixteen,
Came home with a broken heart,
You just wrapped your arms me,
And let me fall apart,
Said you need to slow down, darling,
Think about out first,
Cuz when you fall too fast,
It’s gonna hurt,
You taught me to dream,
Taught me to love,
You taught me to say it’s never say it’s over til done,
Taught me to laugh,
Taught me to cry,
Taught me that everything is gonna be alright,
The only thing that you forgot to,
Is teach me how to live without you,
And now I’m walking down the aisle,
On nearly perfect day,
Turn around and see an empty chair,
I wonder if you’d say,
Slow down darling,
I promise you can do this,
I might not be by your side,
But I’m going to walk you through it,
You taught me to dream,
Taught me to love,
Taught me to say it’s never say it’s over til done,
Taught me to laugh,
Taught me to cry,
Taught me that everything is gonna be alright
Taught me that everything is gonna be alright
The only thing that you forgot to do,
Is teach me how to live without you,
