lyrics

Today I was cleaning and I found a letter
One you wrote me years ago
You started it off "My Dear Olivia"
And I laughed at the cringy tone

But as it went on, you mentioned you missed me
And it had only been four days
You were watching a movie and it got you thinking
And so you decided to say:

"I hope life doesn't separate us,
I hope that it never will.
Some people grow and lose sight of it all,
But I hope we can just stay still.
What you and me have, I'll never let go
Not for a job, a dream or a girl.
I hope we don't ever grow too far apart, and I know that we never will."

I smiled a little as I folded it up
And stored it away in a box
But the words didn't leave me
And they started to haunt me
As they echoed through my thoughts:

"I hope life doesn't separate us,
I hope that it never will.
Some people grow and lose sight of it all,
But I hope we can just stay still.
What you and me have, I'll never let go
Not for a job, a dream or a girl.
I hope we don't ever grow too far apart, and I know that we never will."

Never will, oh we never will
Never will, oh we never will
Never will, oh we never will

Today I was cleaning and I found a letter
One you wrote me years ago
You started it off "My Dear Olivia"
Why you left me, I'll never know
