The Best of Me lyrics The Starting Line meaning

Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone.
The worst is over.
You can have the best of me.
We got older but we're still young.
We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up.
Here we lay again.
On 2 separate bedes.
Sporting 4 posts.
We here a familiar voice,
From pictures drawn from
Memory.
We reflect on
Miscommunications and misunderstandings.
And missing each other too.
Must do without to let go.

Turn our music down
And we whisper
Say what you're thinking right now

Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone.
The worst is over.
You can have the best of me.
We got older but we're still young.
We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up.
Jumping to conclusions
Made me fall away from you.
I'm so glad that the truth,
Has brought that together
Me and you
We're sitting on the ground, (Sitting on the ground)
And we whisper (and we whisper)
Say what you're thinking out loud

Tell me what you thought when you were gone and so alone.
The worst is over.
You can have the best of me.
We got older but we're still young.
We never grew out of the feeling that we won't give up.
Turn our music down.
And we whisper.
We're sitting on the ground.
And we whisper.
We turn our music down.
We're sitting on the ground.
The next time I'm in town
We will kiss girl.
We will kiss girl

Tell me what you thought about when you were gone and so alone.
The worst is over.
You can have the best of me.
We got older but we're still young.
We never grew out of this feeling that we won't.
Feeling that we can't.
We're not ready to give up.

We got older but we're still young.
We never grew out of this feeling that we won't give up.
