lyrics
Our decision was our testament to change
The affect of our love crystallised by choosing names
And crazy wonderings of whom she might be
In beauty and character
What would we give to the perfect tiny frame?
And we sat and talked for hours
Letting train after train go past
Now that road we walked is now abandoned
A prisoner of the past
This condition is hard to explain
I haven’t thought of you in ages
Yet I dreamt about her face
And it was warm, like first love and summer days
She had a smile that made me smile
I’ve been smiling all day
And she was a nice idea while it lasted
Though I don’t recall it lasting very long
So she’ll stay in our boxes where we hide our memories
A casualty of moving on
Though the songs I wrote for you are now unravelled
And it’s hard to see the words
There’s a picture in my mind that’s not yet faded
Our little girl
And though we no longer need each other
And I wish you all the joy in the world
There’s someone who stole my heart though we never made her Can’t figure out why I’m thinking about our little girl
Can’t figure out why I’m thinking about our little girl
