I liked drinking whiskey back when
Drinking whiskey didn't come with something to drown
I liked Friday nights back when Friday nights
Meant that we were painting the town

I liked sad songs till I was living one
I liked highways till you we were hitting one
I liked angels till I was missing one, missing one

I liked loving you back when loving you
Wasn't breaking my heart
Nothing I can do, God, what I wouldn't do
To take it back to the start, back to the start

I liked talking to my friends when
Talking to my friends wasn't talking 'bout us
And I liked calling you back when
Calling you meant that you'd pick up

I liked this house when it was still a home
I liked holding you when you felt close
I liked it all more than you'll ever know
Guess you'll never know

I liked loving you back when loving you
Wasn't breaking my heart
Nothing I can do, God, what I wouldn't do
To take it back to the start

Back when it was simple, back when you were mine
Back when love was easy, didn't even have to try
Back when we were something nothing else could tear apart
God, what I wouldn't give to take it back to the start

I liked loving you back when loving you
Wasn't breaking my heart

I liked loving you back when loving you
Wasn't breaking my heart
Nothing I can do, God, what I wouldn't do
To take it back to the start

Nothing I can do, God, what I wouldn't do
To take it back to the start
I liked loving you back when loving you
Wasn't breaking my heart
