Yea...
She smiled in a big way
The way a girl like that smiles
When the world is hers And she held your eyes
Out in the breezeway down by the shore
In the lazy summer
And she pulled you in
And she bit your lip
And she made you hers
She looked deep into you as you lay together
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
And she combed your hair
And she kissed your teeth
And she made you better than youd been before
And she told you bad things that you wished you could change
In the lazy summer
And she told you laughing down to her core
So she would not cry
And she lay in your lap as she said
Nobody here can live forever
Quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
When you only had barely enough to hang on
She said No one is alone the way you are alone
And you held her looser than you would’ve if you ever couldve known
Some things tie your life together
With slender threads of things to treasure
Days like that should last and last and last
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
But youve already lost
When you only have barely enough of her to hang on
Hang on
Hang on
Hang on
