Ahead of Our Time

Girl, on paper, you and me were a perfect lit match

Like a spark in the dark that we couldn't make last

But it wasn't 'cause we didn't try

Like throwin' water on a wildfire

We were off, we were on, you were here when I was gone

Yeah, we had a lotta rights, but we still got it wrong

Guess there wasn't nothin' we could do

But when I think about me and you

We were just

Too young, too fast, too wild and free

To pay attention to the, "What if it was meant to be?"

Taste of heaven was a hell of a ride

I'd be lyin' if I didn't say I

Get to wonderin' if you wonder what coulda been

If we'da finished what we started on way back when

If we'da met now, would've it've been right?

Maybe we were just ahead, ahead of our time

It's been years since we talked, since you told me never change

And I guess my heart listened 'cause it still feels the same

Way it did that night we walked away

Wish I could hit the ground runnin' back to yesterday

When we were

Too young, too fast, too wild and free

To pay attention to the, "What if it was meant to be?"

Taste of heaven was a hell of a ride

I'd be lyin' if I didn't say I

Get to wonderin' if you wonder what coulda been

If we'da finished what we started on way back when

If we'da met now, would've it've been right?

Maybe we were just ahead, ahead of our time

Ahead of our time

The kind of love you've never seen before

I guess the world wasn't ready for

Girl, we were

Too young, too fast, too wild and free

To pay attention to the, "What if it was meant to be?"

Taste of heaven was a hell of a ride

I'd be lyin' if I didn't say I

Get to wonderin' if you wonder what coulda been

If we'da finished what we started on way back when

If we'da met now, would've it've been right?

Maybe we were just ahead, ahead of our time

Ahead of our time

Yeah, ahead of our time, yeah

Baby, we were just ahead, ahead of our time
