Lyrics
[verse]
We were young and sure we had it figured out
Talking big about what love was all about
Didn't know how easy it could break
Didn't know the weight our choices make
[chorus]
And I still carry what we couldn't fix
Still replaying all our old mistakes from '96
We were only kids playing at goodbye
Never knowing just how hard we'd try
[verse]
I see your face sometimes in crowded rooms
Older now but carrying the same old wounds
We never talk about that autumn year
The one we buried underneath the fear
[chorus]
And I still carry what we couldn't fix
Still replaying all our old mistakes from '96
We were only kids playing at goodbye
Never knowing just how hard we'd try
[bridge]
If I could find the words I never said
I'd tell you none of it was in your head
We were just too young to hold it right
Too young to make it through that night
[chorus]
And I still carry what we couldn't fix
Still replaying all our old mistakes from '96
We were only kids playing at goodbye
Never knowing just how hard we'd try
