Eric

I remember the days when we just used to talk

But September eighteenth was the day the world stopped

Two thousand twenty-one, at your cousin's wedding

I knew right then where my whole life was heading

Eric, that evening was my greatest day

And I've loved you completely since you looked my way

So give me a chance in the same state lines

To show you in person how our hearts entwine

I know that you love me, I know you confess

'Cause my name is still on the left side of your chest

Let's erase all the ghosts that are standing in the way

Eric Tyler, I'm yours, let's start over today

Four years together through the dark and the cold

When they locked you away, I was yours to hold

Through the jail and the prison, I stood by your side

I answered every phone call with nothing to hide

I stayed true and faithful while you did your time

Just waiting to see you step back 'cross the line

So give me a chance in the same state lines

To show you in person how our hearts entwine

I know that you love me, I know you confess

'Cause my name is still on the left side of your chest

Let's erase all the ghosts that are standing in the way

Eric Tyler, I'm yours, let's start over today

If you didn't want this, you'd cover the ink

But you kept my name there, whatever they think

Let's cut out the past and the folks in our way

And build up a family, starting today

Give me a chance in the same state lines

To show you in person how our hearts entwine

I know that you love me, I know you confess

'Cause my name is still on the left side of your chest

Let's erase all the ghosts that are standing in the way

Eric Tyler, I love you, let's start over today
