Because I know the way you did your hair

In the summer light on those old nights

There's something lingering there

And you know that it's just not fair

The way that you kissed me when you'd never miss me. 

And so

Because the way we fell all apart

The words you'll never take back

And the ones that I'd never say

Doesn't erase from my memory 

The way that it tasted when you barely breathed

Quiet in the night holding in nightmares

As you slept as you slept there

"

"

And so

Summers turned round to fall

Apples and promises had

The warmth of you has left my air

Flowers wilted from my hair

The things we left behind when the sun angled wise

We've left ourselves for too many tall tales

And memories in the golden fields 

Because I knew the way you did your hair

In the summer light on those cold nights

Where something lingered there

And you knew that it's just not fair

The way that you kissed me when you'll never miss me.
