Taken

[lajon_j]

I met a girl the other day
In the school yards we would play
The school bell let us steal away
We'd walk together holding hands
Have ice cream and draw with crayons
Laugh at the sky as we ran and ran

I met a girl the other day
We'd eat lunch and time would stray
We'd promise not to grow old and gray
On a hill we made our plans
How forever we would hold hands
Until time ran out of sand

I met a girl the other day
I waited in the school yard to play
Afterwords into the fading day
She never came to hold my hand
Melted ice cream abandoned crayons
So alone I ran and ran

Until I screamed at the sky
"Why? Oh why!
I met a girl the other day
But now she's gone away
I loved her and she's gone away
Everything I love goes away"
So alone I stayed
