Intro
Verse 1
It Was Ninth Grade, 1987,
Thought That Hallway Looked A Little Like Heaven.
You Smiled Once And The Whole World Changed,
Nothing After That Was Quite The Same.
Blue Eyes Shining, Hair In The Breeze,
Girl, You Brought A Shy Kid To His Knees.
Pre-Chorus
I Didn't Know What Love Could Be,
I Just Knew What You Did To Me.
Chorus
You Were My Mix Tape, Side A, Side B,
Every Love Song Sounded Like You And Me.
I'd Call The Radio, "Can You Play Our Song?"
Turn It Up Loud And Sing Along.
One Slow Dance Was All It'd Take,
You Became My Favorite Mix Tape.
Verse 2
Passing Notes While The Teacher Turned Around,
Trying Not To Let My Feelings Make A Sound.
Waiting All Week Just For Friday Night,
Hoping Somehow Everything Felt Right.
One Little Kiss Could Make My Year,
Funny How It Still Feels So Clear.
Pre-Chorus
Back Before The World Moved Fast,
We Thought Those Moments Were Built To Last.
Chorus
You Were My Mix Tape, Side A, Side B,
Every Love Song Sounded Like You And Me.
I'd Call The Radio, "Can You Play Our Song?"
Turn It Up Loud And Sing Along.
One Slow Dance Was All It'd Take,
You Became My Favorite Mix Tape.
Bridge
That Old Cassette May Barely Play,
But It Still Takes My Heart Away.
The Songs May Fade, The Years May Fly,
But Ninth-Grade Love Never Really Says Goodbye.
Chorus
You're Still My Mix Tape, After All These Years,
Still Bringing Back The Smiles And Tears.
One Little Smile, One Simple Glance,
Started My Very First Real Romance.
Some Memories Never Break,
They're Forever Playing... On That Old Mix Tape.
