someday we'll talk about nights like these

someday we'll talk about nights like this

sweaty bodies in a frat house

cheap liquor in a water bottle

forbidden kisses in a stairwell

we'll talk about

the friends we made

the parties we hardly remember

the ones we wish we could forget

we'll talk about

the heartbreaks we experienced

the stupid fights we picked

the crying we did

we'll talk about

the songs we loved

the jokes we had

the stories we told

someday this will just be our shared story

a story to tell our kids about

about what not to do

about us being cool once

about how to create a family from a group of strangers
