You held my head when I was too sad to stand
You cut me down when I was too proud to land
I turned away when you were sick and needed me
I broke your heart when you gave it to me for free

And I know the light you shine on me is gone
And I know you are never coming home
But in my heart you will always be
Twenty one and still in love with me

You walked away because you needed to be free
From someone who’d turn your happiness to misery
Someone who’s head was always in the clouds
Someone you loved but didn’t need to be around

And I know the light you shine on me is gone
And I know you are never coming home
But in my heart you will always be
Twenty one and still in love with me

It’s been so long since I tasted you on me
I still see you but you’re not who you used to be
You’ve grown and taken back your own heart
And left behind the man who would have torn it apart

And I know the light you shine on me is gone
And I know you’re never coming home
But in my heart you will always be
Twenty one and still in love with me

I’ve crossed a line and I can’t return
So many things said meant to hurt
The things I did I can’t explain tonight
I cut down love when it was in its prime

And in the night when I call your name
I wonder to myself do you do the same
And stare at the ceiling holding back the tears
Knowing you gave in to all your fears

And I know the light you shine on me is gone
And I know you’re never coming home
But in my heart you will always be
Twenty one and still in love with me
