rose-colored rearview - weglobe lyrics

ooh, looking back now…

(verse 1)
i traded in our battles for a highlight reel, it’s true
painted over all the angry blues with a softer, golden hue
i remember summer evenings, i forget the winter’s chill
i recall the way you made me laugh, i’ve forgotten how you made me still
that old car we used to drive in, in my mind it’s cherry red
not the broken down reality of the things we left unsaid

(pre*chorus)
but the rearview’s getting clearer with every mile i’ve gained
i see the rust, i see the cracks, the promises that rained…
but they don’t hurt like they used to, they’re just part of the view
a beautiful, rose*colored lesson from me to you

(chorus)
and i’m driving with a rose*colored rearview
it’s the prettiest way to bid the past adieu
i see the good, i let the bad just softly fade
a beautiful mosaic that the distance made
yeah, i’m cruising with this rose*colored rearview
it don’t mean i’d ever go back to you
it just means i’m taking all the light we had…
…and leaving all the shadows in the past
(verse 2)
i found the mix*tape that you made me, and i finally pressed play
heard the love songs you selected for a love you threw away
and instead of feeling angry, i just felt a sweet release
appreciating how that chapter gave me both the pain and peace

(pre*chorus)
’cause the rearview’s getting clearer with every mile i’ve gained!
i see the rust, i see the cracks, the promises that rained…
but they don’t hurt like they used to, they’re just part of the view!
a beautiful, rose*colored lesson from me to you!

(bridge)
the heart has a funny way of healing, of softening the sharpest edges
turning all our hardest lessons into sacred, solemn pledges
to hold the joy, bless the hurt, and keep on moving on
that’s the magic, that’s the power, once the bitterness is gone
(chorus)
(the music swells, with a full string section and backing vocals joining in, creating a motown*inspired wall of sound.)
and i’m driving with a rose*colored rearview!
it’s the prettiest way to bid the past adieu!
i see the good, i let the bad just softly fade!
a beautiful mosaic that the distance made!
yeah, i’m cruising with this rose*colored rearview!
it don’t mean i’d ever go back to you!
it just means i’m taking all the light we had…
…and leaving all the shadows, leaving all the shadows in the past!

(outro)
rose*colored…
rearview…
