Lyrics

Was it all a dream?
I was in a bookstore with you
Sitting on the floor
We would spend the whole afternoon
In between the lines
Of worn out pages
Were there any signs?
Was it in our minds?

But the leaves did fall
Ever so slowly on the ground
It just covered us all
It didn’t make sense waiting around
With the dimming sun
Summer was gone
And we had to run
Before the dawn

It’s gonna be a long time
Til I figure it out
Losing my mind
Waiting around 

We’ll do it all again
Anything goes
Maybe this time
I’ll save my soul 

But the hours fly
And I don’t feel that anything has changed
Is it all a lie?
Maybe time can’t wash away the pain
Like they say it does
In movies and magazines
You can’t take back love
Or whatever that was

Bookstore

What did you say
About the air today?
You said it was light blue
Well, it was just like you

Oh, your golden smile
Should come back for a while
I’m not really sure
Maybe there’s no cure

Guess I’m stuck in the past
I keep watering plants
Spilling onto the floor
You keep me wanting more

And it’s not your fault that we got lost in a stream
I just wasn’t planning on meeting you in a dream
You were never meant to show up here in this life
How was I to know I’d be the one to burn inside

And it’s pretty clear
You never wanted to be here
I was mystified
By all the light you hide

And it’s not your fault that we got lost in a stream
I just wasn’t planning on meeting you in a dream
You were never meant to show up here in this life
How was I to know I’d be the one to burn inside

I just hope you know
That I couldn’t help it
And everything I said
You know I really meant it
