As kids we swore
We'd run away
And start a life together in the woods
But home in time for dinner
We could never stay
Cause suns were always setting on the
Shrinking autumn days while we just
Never knew
What we had to lose
I'd give it all to never know
Which au revoir would be our last
I'm sorting seconds on the floor
Like shards of broken glass, but
I can see you just beyond the veil of New Year's Eve
Lying underneath the evergreen
A promise kept
We ran away
But in separate directions from
The forest understories never told
Now we wither and decay
But seeds are buried making way
For another season's children who just
Never knew
What they had to lose
I'd give it all to never know
Which au revoir would be our last
I'm sorting seconds on the floor
Like shards of broken glass, but
I can see you just beyond the veil of New Year's Eve
Lying underneath the evergreen
You laid me to rest
In orange and red
To find out just what of myself is left
Why couldn't you take
These fallen leaves
These pieces of me I hate
I'd give it all to never know
Which au revoir would be our last
I'm sorting seconds on the floor
Like shards of broken glass, but
I can see you just beyond the veil of New Year's Eve
Lying underneath the evergreen
