12 Feet Tall - Between Tests

In the morning, it was white wine and classes
In the evening, we were stressed out and passing
The time between tests, it was all for the best
That we both ended up this way
It didn't last long it was two years and passing
And all the moments, yeah they slip through the cracks
But the time between tests, they were all for the best
I miss them but I don't regret the time that we spent
I'm glad it ended up this way
But now it's gone, I gotta face it all on my own
And now it's gone, so I'm ripping out the pages where I used to take notes
Driving east to CouerD'Alene in a snowstorm
Yeah we would spend the weekend cooped in your condo
And the time that we spent, three days sick with no rest
But I'm glad it ended up that way
And when your parents moved way out of the country
Freshman summertime, the calls they got ugly
Your time zone was red, seven hours ahead
Two years later seemed so far away
That summer you left
But I'm glad it ended up that way
But now you're gone, I had to come to terms on my own
And I couldn't be alone, I was ripping out the pages where I used to take notes
Cause everyday I'm moving past you
No point in ruminating over all the things I said
Everyday I'm running faster
Twelve minute miles all through college it wasn't my best
Cause every day I'm moving past you
Yeah we got better but we never could've worked it out
Everyday I'm running faster
But all the pages in the book no I can't tear them out
Cause now you're gone, I had to come to terms on my own
And I couldn't be alone, I was ripping out the pages where I used to take notes
