Shortcuts

There was a girl I loved, a girl I knew

You're not the same, she's nothing like you

But you still knew just how to pull my strings

And you made me feel the exact same things

​

Every single kiss, it came with a memory

And when I held your hand, it all came back to me

Did we look past our past, or did we just forget

How we treated each other, the shame and regret

​

We thought just because I knew you back then

That it was a green light to try things again

We're already close, so why should we date?

We're already here, so why should we wait?

​

We should have talked about what we wanted

Heat of the moment, we both were undaunted

Skip all the dumb stuff, get right to the fun

We weren't thinking right, our heads were all spun

​

So we jumped the shark, and fell in the fire

We took a shortcut, and got lost in the mire

Look at what happened, a turn for the worst

From here on out, it's at least 3 dates first
