I'll keep this one pretty metaphorical
For I don't want some one else to know
Like the day in the park
Lights out, it was dark
It was the best night of my life
Tennesee, such a memory
I hold a picture for old time's sake
I wish that you and I
Could go walking and talking again
Maybe see a shooting star
Like that night on the way back
Almost had a heart attack
Dodging a christmas tree
Or like the pictures we took
With the light of my headlights
Still they burn in my memory
School was over
I had to go over
No way I was going to miss that chance
One more chance to make up
Or throw on some fake smiles
Man they go on for miles
This is a year in review
Of a few good times
I had with you
But the bad times
Seem to overtake the good ones
Which is why you let me go
I hurt for a few months
Then tried to make it a dream
As if that half of a year
Meant nothing to me
But in reality
I grew up more each day
I sometimes wish to see that smile
Such a lovely smile
No more fake smiles to ruin my day
Keep looking up for a shooting star
When I see it, I'll know just where you are
City lights seem way too bright
In July
goodness this one's good.
Or like the pictures we took
With the light of my headlights
Still they burn in my memory
Those lines really struck me. Taking pictures by the headlights of a car...it just seems ultra sweet to me. Paints a vivid picture in my head, and ultimately makes me feel a little sad. not sad for me, but for you. Nothing like pouring your heart out for the world to read...and those were words from the heart. They had to be, or they wouldn't have touched mine.
much love and
many thoughts
