you were in college,
working part-time,
waiting tables,
left a small town,
and never looked back.
i was a flight risk,
afraid of fallin`,
wondering why we bother with love,
if it never lasts.
i say ``can you believe that?``
as we`re lyin` on the couch,
the moment,
i can see it,
yes,yes,
i can see it now.
do you remember,
we were sittin` there,
by the water,
you put your arm around me for the first time.
you made a rebel of a careless man careful daughter,
you`re the best thing that`s ever been mine.
flash forward,
we`re takin` on the world together,
and there`s a drawer of my things at you place,
you learn my secrets,
and figure out why i`m guarded,
you say we`ll never make my parents mistakes.
but we got bills to pay,
we got nothin` figure out,
when it was hard to take,
yes,yes,
this is what i thought about.

do you remember,
all the city lights on the water,
you saw me start to believe,
for the first time
you made a rebel of a careless man careful daughter,
you`re the best thing that`s ever been mine.
oh,oh,oh.
and i remember that fight two-thirty AM,
you said everything is slipping right out of our hands,
i ran out,
crying and you followed me out into the street.
braced myself for the goodbye,
cause that`s all i`ve ever known,
the you took me by suprise,
you said ``i`ll never leave you alone``,
you said ``how we felt sitting` by the water.
and every time i look at you,
it`s like a first time.
i fell in love with a careless man careful daughter,
she`s the best thing that ever been mine.
you made a rebel of a careless man careful daughter,
you`re the best thing that`s ever been mine.
do you believe it?
we`re gonna make it now,
and i can see it,
i can see it now.
