I used to watch a lot more TV
|
And recite movies
|
But I've grown to like the sound of conversation more
|
And since you've gone I notice things more clearly
|
Like the stars
|
I now know you are one of the brightest ones
|
|
When I dream I want to be with you
|
Fly me back to where you are
|
A piece of me it went with you
|
You are my sky and all the stars I see
|
Surround me
|
I tied a string around your wrist
|
And said now you'll always remember me
|
Because a thread the gold weight of whatever it holds together
|
Now I tie knots around everything I ever want to keep
|
The only thing attached to this string is me
|
|
In my sleep I still talk to you
|
I close my eyes and I can smell you
|
I remember how you laugh
|
We told the same jokes but we laughed for years
|
We never got old
|
We never got old
|
We never got old
|
|
When I stare I hope that you don't mind
|
I'm only looking past their hiding eyes
|
Trying to catch a glimpse of the light I used to see in you
|
