five years ago, it still looms in my mind like it was yesterday. mismatching shoes, cherry 7 up in sports cars, say it's all cute. in the prime of our age of innocence, fireworks on warm mid west summer nights. sitting in the grass your smile making this california honey's heart skip a beat. video games in the attic to follow through with our arrangement. slow progressions lead to foreheads pressed together and hands intertwined. take our time, at last your lips are placed on mine. rolling on the carpet, this perfect memory we make. young passion, your hand gingerly resting on gold satin. fulfilling lyrics of hair of everywhere, i've got a plane to catch, but in my racing heart this moment can never end. hold open the door southern gentleman, i try to fight, but there's no hiding this grin. into our respective rooms to rehash quick details, i can't shake these butterflies. to the front door, kiss on the cheek and a nice meeting you. i want to carry this on forever, but our time has expired. close my eyes so i can never forget the scene of you driving away, off into those green rolling plains. worst case scenarios come true, i realize that is the last time i will ever be able to see you. three years later, you're still in the back of my mind, then comes the bearer of bad news. you hadn't been well, working so hard to escape. demons got the best of you and took you away.
