You taught me these chords I thought I'd never learn We were only fifteen but we grew fast in the dirt You were the life of the party and a friend when it hurt They say "Flames die quicker the brighter they burn" And now I think about who we both become I've done some growin' up while you're forever young Your parents gave me your Vans when you were gone They showed me where to turn when I come undone I wish you could hear me and maybe you do I want you to know that I still walk in your shoes Though I'm moving on now you're still by my side And we'll be road trippin' every step of my life I still walk in your shoes           Yeah I still walk in your shoes           We used to skip class playing songs on the beach I told you my fears and you told me your dreams Those days by the ocean seem so far to reach But every year we light a candle into the sea And now I think about who we both become I've done some growin' up while you're forever young Your parents gave me your Vans when you were gone They showed me where to turn when I come undone I wish you could hear me and maybe you do I want you to know that I still walk in your shoes Though I'm moving on now you're still by my side And we'll be road trippin' every step of my life I still walk in your shoes I'm taking my sorrow because I wouldn't be here No if it wasn't for you I'm trying to follow in the footsteps that you choose I wish you could hear me and maybe you do I want you to know that I still walk in your shoes Though I'm moving on now you're still by my side And we'll be road trippin' every step of my life I still walk in your shoes           Yeah I still walk in your shoes
