The shadows never left me
I have forgotten what we looked like in the summer
When we built tree houses out of crescent shaped mouths,
And starlike eyes
We built them with our hands
We were still strangers then, you and I
You and I, you and I
I didn't know your story and you didn't know mine
But we acted like old friends

I have forgotten what we looked like in the summer
I can't remember what I felt
I want to know if my lips curled up,
If my hands ached to hold yours,
If my heart knew words other than your name

This morning, I tried to remember
We were still strangers then, you and I
You and I, you and I,
You and I never happened,
I don't think we have met before
Tell me,
Do you know who I am?
I have forgotten what I was called before you and I
Before you and I
We never happened
You and I

I have forgotten
I'm trying to remember
But I tried so hard to forget that I can't remember anymore
