"Freckles" by Sarah Jones (Original Song)

Hey guys, this is a song that I wrote about a year ago called "Freckles." I wrote it about my little brother because it was towards the end of my freshman year of college and I missed being his best friend. I'm sure lots of people with younger siblings can relate. When we were kids, Casey (my brother) used to hang out with me all the time but as we got older he got his own friends and stopped talking to me haha but it's all good. Hope everyone's enjoying summer! :)

By the way, thank you guys so much for getting me to 6,000 subscribers AND 100,000 video views!! I think I hit both of those sometime last week and it was the coolest thing ever! Thank you!

LYRICS:

If there were not another trace of freckles on your face, I'd cry
If I could never know again the days that we were friends, I'd die
I know we don't talk much now
But every time you come around
I see your face
And I'm reminded of those days

'Cause with every freckle that I see, I remember you and me
And I could count a memory for every spot on your face
I know I sound crazy, but I just wish that we could be
The way we were when we were young, free to be all that we dreamed
So hey, what I'm trying to say is
I hope your freckles never fade away
'Cause they remind me of the good days
They remind me of the good days

From playing war in the front yard, pretending hockey sticks were guns
To making smores at night, then spending all day in the sun
Watching "Whose Line" marathons
And making root beer floats with Mom
All summer long
But now all that's gone
And I miss it 'cause

With every freckle that I see, I remember you and me
And I could count a memory for every spot on your face
I know I sound crazy, but I just wish that we could be
The way we were when we were young, free to be all that we dreamed
So hey, what I'm trying to say is
I hope your freckles never fade away
'Cause they remind me of the good days
They remind me of the good days

Say something please, 'cause I just need
To hear your voice
I know there's no way, to bring back those days
But if I had my choice
We'd be close again
Like the way we were back then

Oh, 'cause with every freckle that I see, I remember you and me
And I could count a memory for every spot on your face
So hey, what I'm trying to say is
I hope your freckles never fade away
'Cause they remind me of the good days
They remind me of the good days
They remind me of the good days
They remind me of the good days
