When I first started working on this song with ROYAL, I knew that we needed to create a version that was more acoustic. This stripped version removes all the electronic elements and brings the focus to ROYAL's sweet and inspired vocals. I hope you enjoy it.
We were just kids then
Friendship on the surface
Did you know you made me nervous
Quarter life crisis
Hit me like a virus
Now I can’t get you out of my head, hmm.
I’m thinking’ bout the moments you caught me off guard
Picture perfect images stayed in my head and heart
Caught in places only you and I exist inside
Like an escape I can disappear to any time
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a
Found you on purpose
Emotions on the surface
Do you know you make me nervous
Did you know you made me nervous
Years came between us
Regretting all of the reasons
Now I can’t let it happen again, no
I’m thinking’ bout the moments you caught me off guard
Picture perfect images stayed in my head and heart
Caught in places only you and I exist inside
Like an escape I can disappear to any time
We were kids when we felt a spark
Frozen in time, the way you spoke to my heart
What I won’t give to go back to the start
The start with you
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a memory
You’re more than just a
