Seasons

There was a time
When we had time to dream
Of everything we didn’t need
And not a promise was a lie
And a thousand miles
Felt like an inch.
I memorized the songs you liked,
I’m wasting nights on memories,
I’m sick and tired
Of getting tongue-tied
When you ain’t even here
And I’m in my world alone
With all the words
I wrote upon
My bedroom walls
And you don’t even need
To know this all

‘Cause I fucked up my life
To get back to my past
When the light of your eyes
Meant much more than my breath
And you’re still here beside me
Though we’re planets away
And the seasons are passing
But I still feel the same.

There was a time
When I had everything
But all I needed,
I’ve been bleeding
Right before your eyes, you didn’t
Notice you were all I smiled for.
All the roads I walk alone
Are way too far from home
For home is where you keep
Your golden soul.

I fucked up my life
To get back to my past
When the light of your eyes
Meant much more than my breath
And you’re still here beside me
And I still cannot speak
Though the seasons are passing
But you’re all that I need.
