Yellowcard es una banda estadounidense de punk rock formada en Jacksonville, Florida, en 1997. La banda es conocida por su distintivo sonido que incorpora elementos de punk rock, pop punk y rock alternativo, junto con el uso destacado del violín, algo no muy común en este género. La formación original del grupo incluía a Ben Dobson (vocalista), Ben Harper (guitarrista), Sean Mackin (violinista), Warren Cooke (bajista) y Longineu Parsons III (baterista).
En 1999 lanzaron su primer álbum, "Midget Tossing", que les permitió captar la atención de un público local. El segundo álbum, "Where We Stand" (2000), consolidó su presencia en la escena musical local, pero aún les faltaba un gran salto hacia el reconocimiento nacional.
En 2001, se produjo un cambio crucial en la formación cuando Ryan Key reemplazó a Ben Dobson como vocalista principal. La nueva alineación trajo consigo una evolución en su sonido. Con Key a la cabeza, la banda lanzó el EP "The Underdog EP" en 2002. Este lanzamiento atrajo la atención de Capitol Records, quienes firmaron con la banda y los ayudaron a grabar su primer gran éxito comercial.
En 2003, Yellowcard lanzó "Ocean Avenue", el álbum que los catapultó a la fama internacional. El sencillo homónimo, junto con otros éxitos como "Way Away" y "Only One", se volvió inmensamente popular, y el álbum fue certificado platino en Estados Unidos. Ocean Avenue no solo estableció a Yellowcard

[Verse 1]
Hmmmm...
I found out in the fall, I've been gone
On the road for a year
She said, "Honey, I've got real bad news"
And then there were just tears
And we would never be the same again
Since then I've often wondered
What you might have been like
How it would have felt to hold you
Would you have had my eyes?
Don't you think we would've been best friends?
[Chorus 1]
You would be ten and I'd be
Driving you to school
You would tell all your friends
That you thought I was cool
And you would have
All the love in my heart
Yeah, you would have
All the love in my heart
[Verse 2]
We were twenty-two years young then
Breaking rules all around
We were moving in that first apartment
It felt like it was never gonna end
Both so lost and crazy
We were young so we ran
Now I live in a dream where I am
Holding your little hands
I never got to meet you, my best friend
[Chorus 2]
You would be ten and I'd be
Driving you to school
You would tell all your friends
That you thought I was cool
You would be out in the sun
Until it was gone
You would be watching Star Wars
With your PJs on
And you would have
All the love in my heart
Yeah, you would have
All the love in my heart
[Bridge]
Don't you think we would have been best friends?
[Chorus 3]
You would be ten and I'd be
Driving you to school
You would tell all your friends
That you thought I was cool
You would be out in the sun
Until it was gone
You would be watching Star Wars
With your PJs on
You would be playing tunes on
On your first guitar
You would be harmony to
Every single part of me
And you have
All the love in my heart
Yeah, you would have
All the love in my heart
Hmmmm...
