[Verse 1]
She was soft, she was kind
She was warm and she was mine
And now she's getting married
Now she's getting married
And I'm not the one she'll kiss goodnight

[Verse 2]
We were young, I'll admit
But I thought that this was it
And now she's getting married
All my hope is buried
And I wonder if she ever thinks of
Ice cream in the park, dancing in dark
And holding like she'd never let me go

[Verse 3]
She'll dress up wearing white while I wait for a wife
And now she's getting carried from the sanctuary
And they're driving down the streets were we once
Held each others hands, talked about our plans
And dreamed about the places we would go

[Bridge]
Do you ever think, do you ever think
Do you ever think of me?
Do you ever dream, do you ever dream
That we were meant to be?
Do you ever think, do you ever think
Do you ever think of me?
Do you ever dream, do you ever dream
That we were meant to be?

[Outro]
So if I, had the chance, I would ask for one last dance
I know we're not together, I'll love her forever
Even when I'm buried, now she's getting married

After getting dropped by Columbia Records at 18 years old, singer-songwriter Alec Benjamin built a following by playing in parking lots outside of Shawn Mendes and Troye Sivan concerts. The Phoenix, Arizona native caught the attention of Jon Bellion, earning a songwriting credit on Bellion’s debut album and later joined him on tour.

To build on the momentum, Benjamin began uploading new songs to his YouTube channel at a rapid clip and eventually earned on a viral hit with “I Built a Friend” and a deal with Atlantic Records.

Benjamin connects to listeners by incorporating using his life struggles to tell stories and give meaning to his songs. You can see this in “Let Me Down Slowly,” “Paper Crown,” “I Built a Friend,” “Death of a Hero,” and “If We Have Each Other.”
