Al Menos Pensamos Que Era

Brantley Gilbert

At Least We Thought It Was

Junior year you were A's and B's
Right on track, homecomin' queen
But the day we met
You had your heart set on that bad boy thing

And your daddy swore I was trouble
So, I snuck you out to cuddle up
Next to me in that middle seat
We'd roll back roads hold hands and sing

We were Romeo and Juliet
Breakin' out in a sweat, makin' out in the bed
Of a beat up truck slap covered in mud
You swore I was lyin' I swore I was stuck

By the bare footprint on a fogged up window
A big ol' heart around our initials
We told all our friends that it was love
And it was love
At least we thought it was

You had to wait till you turned eighteen
Earned that ring, hit one knee
Just like we planned
Tried our hand at that old runaway thing

And I didn't know where I was goin'
But I remember your hair was blowin' in the wind
I just knew it then
That what we had would never end

We were Bonnie and Clyde, rollin' 95
Burnin' treads on the tires, barely a dime
Both our names must've gone insane
Thinkin' we'd get somewhere on half a tank

On the side and at the end of our road
With just enough cash to get you home
We believed all we'd ever need was love
And we had love
At least we thought it was

Love at first sight
I remember that first night
What a beautiful girl

But I grew up and now I see
It just wasn't meant to be
I think it was us against the world

We were Romeo and Juliet
Breakin' out in a sweat, makin' out in the bed
Of a beat up truck slap covered in mud
You swore I was lyin', I swore I was stuck

By the bare footprint on a fogged up window
A big ol' heart around our initials
We told all our friends, that it was love
It was love
At least we thought it was

Least we thought it was

Al Menos Pensamos Que Era

El año junior tú tenías A's y B's
Todo en orden, reina del regreso a casa
Pero el día que nos conocimos
Tenías tu corazón puesto en ese chico malo

Y tu papá juró que yo era un problema
Así que te saqué a escondidas para acurrucarnos
Junto a mí en ese asiento del medio
Recorríamos caminos de tierra, tomados de la mano y cantando

Éramos Romeo y Julieta
Sudando, besándonos en la cama
De una camioneta golpeada cubierta de barro
Tú juraste que mentía, yo juré que estaba atrapado

Por la huella desnuda en una ventana empañada
Un gran corazón alrededor de nuestras iniciales
Le dijimos a todos nuestros amigos que era amor
Y era amor
Al menos pensábamos que era

Tuviste que esperar hasta cumplir dieciocho
Conseguir ese anillo, arrodillarte
Tal como lo planeamos
Intentamos hacer eso de escapar

Y no sabía a dónde iba
Pero recuerdo que tu cabello volaba con el viento
Solo lo sabía entonces
Que lo que teníamos nunca terminaría

Éramos Bonnie y Clyde, rodando por la 95
Desgastando los neumáticos, apenas con un centavo
Nuestros nombres debieron volverse locos
Pensando que llegaríamos a algún lado con medio tanque

Al lado y al final de nuestro camino
Con solo suficiente dinero para llevarte a casa
Creíamos que todo lo que necesitábamos era amor
Y teníamos amor
Al menos pensábamos que era

Amor a primera vista
Recuerdo esa primera noche
Qué chica tan hermosa

Pero crecí y ahora veo
Que simplemente no estaba destinado a ser
Creo que éramos nosotros contra el mundo

Éramos Romeo y Julieta
Sudando, besándonos en la cama
De una camioneta golpeada cubierta de barro
Tú juraste que mentía, yo juré que estaba atrapado

Por la huella desnuda en una ventana empañada
Un gran corazón alrededor de nuestras iniciales
Le dijimos a todos nuestros amigos que era amor
Era amor
Al menos pensábamos que era

Al menos pensábamos que era
