Milestones

Looking back at those days
When old days were new
Lost inside a reverie, a memory of you
Young and wild and tough to tame
We saw the hard times through
We became each other hiding place
Our sacred space
The good times that can't be replaced
My saving grace

And these milestones, around our hearts
One for every mile we run
Two for every heartache, three for the pain
They mark every battle we've won
These milestones, celebrate our lives
Sometimes it's a chain of tears
But I wouldn't trade a single stone
Wouldn't sacrifice one moment of gold
Together we've made a life to call our own
Remembered in these precious milestones

Shuffling through the souvenirs
The journey of our love
Cracked and yellowed photographs
The bittersweet memories of
And everytime we'd call it quits
It didn't last for long
When we'd stop to look at the balance
From happy to sad
We would always dwell on the fun we had
We took the good with the bad

And these milestones, around our hearts
One for every mile we run
Two for every heartache, three for the pain
They mark every battle we've won
These milestones, celebrate our lives
Sometimes it's a chain of tears
But I wouldn't trade a single stone
Wouldn't sacrifice one moment of gold
Together we've made a life to call our own
Remembered in these precious milestones

So hard to find new meaning
Reinvent the way you're feeling
Keep the music playing
All night long

And these milestones, around our hearts
One for every mile we run
Two for every heartache, three for the pain
They mark every battle we've won
These milestones, celebrate our lives
Sometimes it's a chain of tears
But I wouldn't trade a single stone
Wouldn't sacrifice one moment of gold
Together we've made a life to call our own
Remembered in these precious milestones
Remembered in these precious milestones
