|
All things pass with time |
|
Old trends, old friends |
|
Fitting for the month that Michael died |
|
Buried in a stone cold riverbed, where the watershed divides |
|
Oh come colder weather |
|
Oh come something better please |
|
All things freeze with time |
|
Clear skies, dry eyes |
|
Am I colder than the air in this town |
|
I have been a stone cold riverbed, if still I am alive |
|
But maybe |
|
Someday |
|
Maybe you'll forgive me |
|
Because I've been a mayday son |
|
I'm withered, weathered by the setting sun of your summer |
|
If I could be anyone |
|
These days I'd be someone different |
|
So I could hold you now |
|
But you slip away like a changing maple leaf |
|
And try to find any dry land that I can |
|
For the last time, though I have loved you |
|
You keep slippin' away, slippin' away and I am finished with |
|
All the chaos and the ticking clock |
|
The college life, the bomb that drops |
|
And blows the whole damn thing to bits |
|
Freezing are my fingertips in this cold |
|
In this cold, cold town |
|
We make such different people |
|
Climbing into different beds at night |
|
With both such different feelings |
|
Mine are overwhelming, are yours |
|
I might be screaming while you're |
|
Dreaming without any concern |
|
It took so long for me to find |
|
That I can't try anymore |
|
And if I said I'm sorry |
|
Too many times before it's 'cause I |
|
Just wanted desperately to make you love me |
|
Darling, if the sun could shine in |
|
Brighter than all your distractions |
|
I would climb in to help |
|
And light myself on fire |
