Sunlight comes creeping in
Illuminates our skin
We watch the day go by
Stories of all we did
It made me think of you
It made me think of you
Under a trillion stars
We danced on top of cars
Took pictures of the stage
So far from where we are
They made me think of you
They made me think of you
Oh lights go down
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
For the rest of our lives
I'm in a foreign state
My thoughts they slip away
My words are leaving me
They caught an aeroplane
Because I thought of you
Just from the thought of you
Oh lights go down
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
Oh damn these walls
In the moment we're ten feet tall
And how you told me after it all
We'd remember tonight
For the rest of our lives
If these wings could fly
Oh lights go down
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
Oh damn these walls
In the moment we're ten feet tall
And how you told me after it all
We'd remember tonight
For the rest of our lives
Illuminates our skin
We watch the day go by
Stories of all we did
It made me think of you
It made me think of you
We danced on top of cars
Took pictures of the stage
So far from where we are
They made me think of you
They made me think of you
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
For the rest of our lives
My thoughts they slip away
My words are leaving me
They caught an aeroplane
Because I thought of you
Just from the thought of you
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
Oh damn these walls
In the moment we're ten feet tall
And how you told me after it all
We'd remember tonight
For the rest of our lives
In the moment we're lost and found
I just wanna be by your side
If these wings could fly
Oh damn these walls
In the moment we're ten feet tall
And how you told me after it all
We'd remember tonight
For the rest of our lives

There is one point in time that they know they will be apart, so the spend the day recalling memories together (we watch the day go by / stories of all we did) and he says that they will remember that moment for the rest of their lives (And how you told me after it all / We'd remember tonight)

I think there is also another stage when (he already left and) she does miss him and she wishes she had wings to fly, her heart is devastated and feels trap in the dam walls of frustration. She then remembers that she knew he would leave and he told her they would remember the moments they felt ten feet tall for the rest of their lives.
It is a beautiful songs that recalls joy and sadness at the same time.

Its remind me how we gonna handle our feeling when we separated by long distance without meeting..I totally just can't..
It's about a wish. She wants to meet someone again and i won't be surprised the next time i see Ryan Tedder writes a song that i LOVE. He is a genius.
