Whatever That Was

Last time we were in this town

We were fresh out of those caps and gowns

On long pine loop, riding around

Putting goodbye off, trying not to get too heavy

Drinking warm beer on the levy

If I'd of tried you would've let me

But all we did was talk

Never quite lovers but more than friends

Maybe that's the best thing we could've been

Cause what never starts never has to end

Girl, you look as good as you did back then

We're standing just as close as we ever did

Laughing and falling right back in

To whatever that was, whatever that was again

You've got someone back in Austin

I've got someone but we ain't talking

Here we are on main street

Walking back down memory lane

I hold your car door open

Hold on tight for one long moment

But we both know where this ain't going

Guess some things will never change

Never quite lovers but more than friends

Maybe that's the best thing we could've been

Cause what never starts never has to end

Girl, you look as good as you did back then

We're standing just as close as we ever did

Laughing and falling right back in

To whatever that was, whatever that was again

Never quite lovers but more than friends

Maybe that's the best thing we could've been

Cause what never starts never has to end

Girl, you look as good as you did back then

We're standing just as close as we ever did

Laughing and falling right back in

To whatever that was, whatever that was again
