Lyrics:

It felt like you kept your heart in Brisbane,
When you left for Sydney at seventeen.
Tattooed on your wrist I still remember exactly what it was that best friends means.
You wouldn't let distance keep us apart,
I owe a decade of youth to who you are.
But we were warned from the start
They didn't mention your part when they cautioned the future holds casualties.

And what they failed to convey is we'd carry each of them with us to some degree.

Still have an archive of your photos left to go through.
Still try to count the tattoos we have that used to match you.
And part of me forgets sometimes you won't be coming home soon, when there's so many stories left to tell you.

If twelve months are gone then I'm still just as tense as that morning your brother had to call all your friends,
'Cause I can't put to words when I don't understand
Circumstance, circumstance.

I knew your face and your laugh like the back of my hand,
I'd trade places with you if given the chance to hear you sing there's no I in Team once again, once again.

Still have an archive of your photos left to go through,
Still try to count the tattoos we have that used to match you.
And part of me forgets sometimes you won't be coming home soon, when there's so many stories left to tell you.
