lyrics

hear those birds outside my window
I was here such a long time ago.
remember when we were children?
it seems like it was just yesterday
when you said you had to go
but this time I couldn't follow.

cracker jacks, we ate side by side
the prize inside I stuck on your hand with a smile.
you laughed and shook your wonderful head
and you left like grace, quick as you came.
and as you were walking by
you said farewell and I said goodbye.

dandelions you tied in a twist
my lady lion, I'll call you amethyst.
your eyes are cold just like marbles
may all your days be gold like your heart
and I'll stay away and forget each attempt I made.

so now I try to make sense of it all
but I always find my head's against the wall.
cause it hurts and gets lonely too
when all that's left are scars named after you.
and I'm just as damn confused
as a blood red moon on your summer's youth.
