Hands in the dresser box,
feathers everywhere
Lipstick kisses on mirrors
Glitter in our hair
Dancing to the songs we had to know
Taping them off of the radio
And you'd push pause and I'd
scribble down a verse
So we could learn the words and
sing them at school
Yup, we were pretty cool
Seems so long ago that you
and I shared our lives
For so many years we would
laugh and we would fight
But you and
I, we were a team
And there was no amount of grounding
That could get in the way of
you being by my side
As my partner in crime
Sleeping in the yard
To sneak out in the middle
of the night
I would skate and you
would ride your bike
Bandits born to ride
Racing like we made some
great escape out
To meet the other kids at the roundabout
And feeling like the kings
of our hometown
We'd both have been dead if our
parents found out
Well,
I guess that they'll know now
Seems so long ago that you and
I, shared our lives
For so many years, oh,
we would laugh and we would fight
But you and
I, we were a team
And there was no amount of grounding
That could get in the way of
you being by my side
As my partner in crime
Partner in crime
We grew up in years, ran away
We didn't see each other every day
And the photos of your happy head
Turned to photos of you
In the hospital bed
And before I knew it,
you'd slipped away
We never got to chat
about the good old days
But I hope you knew
I looked up to you,
an d not just because I was smaller and I had to
One day I'll tell your little boy
of how we shared our lives
All the mischief that was made
with you by my side
Or that when the parents split,
you sat with me and cried
Oh, it seems so long ago that you and
I, we shared our lives
For so many years, oh,
we would laugh and we would fight
But you and
I, we were a team,
and there was no one on the ground to hate
Let get away of you, be by my side
And maybe we'll reunite
in the next life
You'll be by my side again,
my partner in crime
You
