The silken scent of ripe strawberries
Seeps suddenly on the fairy breeze
Who can say why scents come so strong
It's been awhile since I wrote a song
Did you even exist
Seems like something from a movie scene
That ended well for someone else
I only got to watch the beginning
I hear your voice
And suddenly I see my choice in sharp relief
We lived, we loved, we fought, we died
Ah, ah, ah
Buried us in the city park
By the bushes of blooms and towering trees
We'll sleep peacefully there
By picturesque sky, earth, and water
Divided forever
But remembered by those who matter
But you (come on)
Thought it was right with you (come on)
In retrospect I get you didn't check off all respects
But you (come on)
Outlined against that sky
Shone like a hero then
Light's doused and
I'm not blinded anymore
Anymore, anymore
Anymore, ah
You know, everything's fine
I just keep grappling to get more time
Too busy now to cook, to hang
To clean, to climb, or write
I'll stay up late - just who on earth
Needs hours times eight?
I'll just get by on five a night (a night, a night)
Ah, ah, ah
I buried us in the city park
By the bushes of blooms and flowering trees
We'll sleep peacefully there
By picturesque sky, earth, and water
Divided forever
But remembered by those who matter
But you (come on)
Thought it was right with you (come on)
In retrospect I get you didn't check off all respects
But you (come on)
Outlined against that sky
Shone like a hero then
Light's doused and
I'm not blinded anymore
Anymore, anymore
Anymore, ah
The sky is crushed strawberry pink
I'm driving too fast for these limits I think
Why don't I know, know what I want
Why do they ask me, "What's wrong?"
The sky is crushed strawberry pink
I'm driving too fast for these limits I think
Why don't I know, know what I want
Why do they ask me, "What's wrong?"
Well I've just been running more
That's why I'm looking so gaunt
The silken scent of ripe strawberries
Seeps suddenly on the fairy breeze
Who can say why some scents come so strong
It's been awhile since I wrote a song

The silken scent of ripe strawberries
Seeps suddenly on the fairy breeze
Who can say why scents come so strong
