So long, lost loves.
|
I haven't forgotten you, just yet.
|
I hung your picture before I knew, next to scenes set in golden hues.
|
Your face, still drifting inside my head.
|
The weight is gone, heavy words that I could have said.
|
I sang instead when other girls only cried.
|
I called it grace.
|
I am a mindless child.
|
But I said: He's treating me right.
|
You're gone.
|
What's left?
|
Memories of greater days just bang.
|
Look on, you say.
|
Build together the obvious clues.
|
Taught you: skip the series of laid out rules.
|
Go sing outside, as clouds raining spark the night.
|
That's how we met.
|
Was it the greatest day of this life?
|
I said: (S)he's treating me right.
|
We're just a little bit lost inside our houses.
|
We're just a little unkept out in the streets.
|
But I won't ever pass up a second to tell you replacement's a myth.
|
'Cause I know when the kids are all grown we will still have this blue and gold print.
