I remember when I felt the Great Shift before I even knew what it was. Driving home in my glitter dress and your red bow-tie. I played songs that reminded me of you, reaching out. But when I turned to sing the lyrics to you, you were a million miles away, in another universe, orbiting a different sun. I tried to patch it up, putting my arm through yours like a needle and thread through cloth. We ripped apart in every pothole we hit on the road. Still to this day, I wonder, where did you go?

The Great Shift
I remember when I felt the Great Shift before I even knew what it was. Driving home in my glitter dress and your red bow-tie. I played songs that reminded me of you, reaching out. But when I turned to sing the lyrics to you, you were a million miles away, in another universe, orbiting a different sun. I tried to patch it up, putting my arm through yours like a needle and thread through cloth. We ripped apart in every pothole we hit on the road. Still to this day, I wonder, where did you go?
I think tonight, more than most, I just miss you
