All the things I left unsaid
For words unspoken
A broken heart contends
And it only feels like yesterday
But purple paths can lead you astray
Growing by the river bend
Floating petals, you know how hard it is to pretend
Something I don't quite understand
How this scent it always
Reminds me of a friend
Someone I used to know
Just a little while ago
No, will you remember when you're old?
The stolen memories
That an empty bottle holds
Purple voices in the wind
Drown the melodies
That the songbird sings
Growing by the river bend
Sinking petals, you know you don't
Have to pretend
I'll try to plead your innocence
This jacaranda, somehow
Reminds me of a friend
Someone I used to know
But I had to let em go
