Twenty Years from Now -Witness |
| [00:10.770] |
I once dreamt of brown stone building with a front porch |
| [00:13.770] |
Mandevilla vine wound around the rungs |
| [00:16.660] |
Summer dress on a bedroom floor |
| [00:18.640] |
You pressed close enough to me to feel the breath in my lungs |
| [00:21.470] |
Until we walk down lyndale |
| [00:22.740] |
Almost lockstep |
| [00:24.480] |
Not too slow |
| [00:25.459] |
But just enough for progress |
| [00:26.989] |
Time was wasted debating all of them odds and ends |
| [00:29.799] |
Ain't no floating this river baby we gotta swim |
| [00:33.339] |
You were born in July |
| [00:34.699] |
I was born December 191980orwell |
| [00:37.889] |
The years came and they went |
| [00:39.279] |
But the chains of events |
| [00:40.389] |
Sparked a change in the wind |
| [00:41.799] |
And now we're sharing a doorbell |
| [00:43.69] |
We returned to the haven that we created |
| [00:45.499] |
And later we laid in the shade with lemonade in the backyard |
| [00:48.578] |
The sun faded and when I looked at the paper |
| [00:50.928] |
It's twenty years in the future |
| [00:52.358] |
I knew we would make it that far |
| [00:54.868] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [00:57.618] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [00:59.938] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:02.618] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:05.258] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:07.528] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:10.598] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:13.268] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [01:14.918] |
I once dreamt of a blonde haired girl beneath the bus stop |
| [01:17.898] |
When we were both still young and eyes bright |
| [01:20.528] |
Somebody told me that she lived around the corner |
| [01:22.828] |
I was knocking on her door like hey do you wanna ride bikes |
| [01:25.638] |
Those summers always seemed to smother under winter |
| [01:28.368] |
My mother would make me bundle up with gloves to cover up my fingers |
| [01:31.308] |
But she had none when we were playing make believe |
| [01:33.668] |
And when I tried to hold her hand |
| [01:35.108] |
That's when she ran away from me |
| [01:36.708] |
Damn |
| [01:37.308] |
Well that was my first bee sting |
| [01:39.08] |
Next few years tried to find her each spring |
| [01:41.608] |
But these things rarely ever come to closure |
| [01:44.288] |
Never got her new address before she left for minnesota |
| [01:47.328] |
I don't suppose you know her and it's just coincidence |
| [01:49.638] |
But if it's what I think it is then this is just the start |
| [01:52.578] |
The only difference is I never really knew her |
| [01:54.888] |
Till twenty years in the future |
| [01:56.178] |
But knew we would make it this far |
| [01:58.858] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:01.438] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:03.848] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:06.528] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:09.178] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:11.858] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:14.468] |
I knew that we would make it that far |
| [02:17.138] |
I knew that we would make it |
