SSGT Sky do you remember sitting so close together letting our skin brush the others but never allowing our eyes to meet? and I was just 14 but I knew exactly who you were to me and you were almost 18 almost a marine The callow acts of our youth can cut deep my heart always ruled the roost governed by altruistic spontaneity and with every blind leap you were there, looking after me SSGT Sky do you remember the week I turned 18 you returned from overseas remember the bed we made on the beach your hands shook as they traveled the length of me and we were just kids though your innocence was stripped I knew exactly who I was to you, and I tried to replenish all of it But the callow acts of youth they cut deep SSGT Sky do you remember forgetting that we belonged together? and how I thought I was jaded by those who came after? until the night before you left you showed me the pillow that you'd kept and with my hair tie on your wrist you kissed me like you'd never loved another I was a lost 23 until I remembered exactly who you were to me you were almost 27 a special ops marine the callow acts of our youth remedied my heart always ruled the roost governed by altruistic spontaneity and with every blind leap you were there looking after me SSGT Sky our fallen marine did you still wear my hair tie on your wrist when you remembered your last memory? and of your last thoughts did you take comfort in any of me? The callow acts of our youth can cut deep my heart always ruled the roost governed by altruistic spontaneity and with every blind leap you will remain looking after me.
