Best Thing I Didn't Plan

Verse

Screen door slapping twice behind us

Popsicle drips on the porch steps

Your bike still warm from the ride here

Grass stains we never regret

Sixteen and sunburnt on the shoulders

Radio hums through the yard

We didn't write this on a calendar

It just showed up in the dark

Pre-Chorus

Who plans a night like this one

Who circles it in red

It just walked in through the window

And landed in my head

Chorus

Best thing I didn't plan

Fireflies in a mason jar hand

Sneakers kicked off in the sand

Summer just fell into my hands

Wasn't looking, wasn't scheduled in

Best thing I didn't plan

Verse

Gas station slushies at midnight

Windows down on the old back road

Your laugh spills out like it's leaking

From a heart that don't know how to hold

We map the stars with our fingers

Names we made up on the spot

Nobody told us this was coming

But I'm glad that it's all that we got

Pre-Chorus

Who plans a night like this one

Who circles it in red

It just walked in through the window

And landed in my head

Chorus

Best thing I didn't plan

Fireflies in a mason jar hand

Sneakers kicked off in the sand

Summer just fell into my hands

Wasn't looking, wasn't scheduled in

Best thing I didn't plan

Bridge

Come September we'll be leaving

Different roads, different towns

But I'll keep this one July

Folded soft, no wearing down

Some things don't need forever

They just need one perfect day

Chorus

Best thing I didn't plan

Fireflies in a mason jar hand

Sneakers kicked off in the sand

Summer just fell into my hands

Wasn't looking, wasn't scheduled in

Best thing I didn't plan
