[01:10.48] As kisses go it wasn't anything out of the ordinary
[01:15.93]
[01:16.55] The alkaline lips Her
[01:20.13] Fingers wrapped around my belt She had to go
[01:25.96] She took a step back in and
[01:27.51] Then she started to smile I heard a funny sound
[01:30.38]
[01:32.08] And everything seemed to
[01:33.87] Shift yeah
[01:35.56]
[01:47.72] A crazy wail A funny shutter of a bad magnetic event
[01:53.33]
[01:54.00] A ghost ran through us
[01:55.58]
[01:57.20] Moving like a shadow of a cloud
[01:59.14]
[02:00.03] I wasn't sure
[02:02.14]
[02:03.13] I thought that something
[02:04.35] Happened but I didn't know what
[02:06.45] The moment seemed to fade And I turned my
[02:10.30] Eyes back to her That's when I saw
[02:14.88]
[02:15.58] I freeze the look of pre-alert and study
[02:17.84] It still her smile starts to loosen
[02:20.55]
[02:21.98] Her pupils yawn wide And then she's
[02:23.90] Blown From the face of the earth
[02:27.57]
[02:29.18] There wasn't any wind No noise
[02:31.96] No nothing just a body jerked skyward limbs
[02:34.84] Flailing like an unloved marionette
[02:36.29]
[02:37.37] At impossible speed Receding away like a
[02:41.05] Far away dot I can see her still
[02:43.80] Scream for help but no one answered
[02:45.78] She turned end on end like a long lost astronaut
[02:48.95]
[02:49.50] I felt the summer air reclaim me
[02:51.99] The chirp of a bird the whisper of leaves
[02:54.29] And I was frozen
[02:55.40]
[02:56.75] To the face of the earth
[02:58.65]
[03:00.62] I never really knew the way she lived her life
[03:05.06]
[03:06.76] I tried a couple numbers but they never called back
[03:11.08]
[03:13.08] I didn't know her family or friends at all
[03:16.73]
[03:17.67] With no one to call summer turned into fall
[03:22.62]
[03:23.20] I gave up
[03:24.18]
[03:25.53] It's been a
[03:26.26] Couple years and I guess I'm fine about it
[03:29.70]
[03:31.62] It's not like we were married It
[03:33.37] Was three or four months
[03:36.09]
[03:38.09] And nothing's really different Though it seems like
[03:41.05] I've spent My life in planes
[03:44.56]
[03:45.24] Which is kind of strange But I don't know
[03:49.89]
[03:51.25] La la la la la la la la la la la la
