Verse 1:

Sat in the car, running late for the train
G A D
I kissed your hand in the dark

Raced for a pen as you ran from the rain
G A D
Scratched out some words from the heart
Pre-Chorus:
Bm G
It's still under the seat on a parking receipt
D F#m
Getting old
Bm G
All the words that I meant should've seen you again
A
But they won't
Chorus:
D
Was it love?
G
It hurt like it was
Bm A
Won't you tell me something
G A
Only we could know, only we could know?
D
Was it us?
G
Weren't we enough?
Bm A
Did I lose the one thing
G A
Only we could know, only we could know?
D
Was it love?
Verse 2:
D
Winter went by just a handful of times
G A D
To soften and settle the dust

Gave my regards when I sold the old car
G A D
To stop me from thinking 'bout us

Bm G
Is it under the seat on that lonely receipt?

Heaven knows.

Maybe time is a friend that'll help me forget
A
What I wrote
Chorus:
D
Was it love?

It hurt like it was

Only we could know, only we could know?

Weren't we enough?

Did I lose the one thing

Only we could know, only we could know?

Was it love?
