What were those words that we said
I remember as I close my eyes, and cry in my bed
Like the first time when we lost sight of the world in our eyes
And I could’ve died happily without another word to be said
Now I swear I wouldn’t even know if I was dead
Or the moment we drove north to be free
As my hand found yours, green mountains, for as far as the eye could see
Oh I wish I could be
I wish I could be
But you’re up in the trees
And I’m lost out at sea
Though you lay heavily
On my heart, Dear Gracie
It’s like the moment we touched
Infinite, indescribable, felt beautiful, for a moment I trust
Just for a moment I trust
Do you feel just as such?
Like the light that lit the emptiness of our chests
The same place where your smile, your heart, and mine still rest
I’m falling asleep in this mess
Oh I wish I wish you the best
I love you
I rest
