Call of Duty together, our favorite mobile games, you see
Memories, laughs, and quality time we always cherished together
Teasing and challenges, first kill, last kill, we were together
But cars were on our minds, our dreams not yet achieved
In Call of Duty, we raced and had fun, even though we'd never be relieved
Being a passenger princess? Oh yes, I had that honor too
His voice, his laugh, his smile, all were great, and made me feel brand new
So we called and video-called, happiness filled the air
I didn't stop smiling, I was grateful to hear
His voice, his laughs, his smile, they made my heart sing
We may not have a car, but we had each other, that's what I would think.
