dear god, dear god, believe me now,
this isn't how things looked
one min, one minute before now,
but i did all that i could
to turn, to turn out of the way
of trouble's ugly grasp,
but to my surprised and widened eyes,
we spun like pin balls on the glass.
one March, my brother placed the ball
five times before it didn't fall
atop the tee he'd set for me,
and i swung.
one warm and stormy day i knew,
the tallest trees in wind all blew,
the clouds rolled out on evening's brow,
lightning stung.
we've sat, we've sat on grassy hills
like this before, you and i,
but mud and blood have never felt
so cold as now i die.
oh love, oh love sing with me now
before my breath runs out.
take one last good look at me now
before our headlights fade out.
one March, my brother placed the ball
five times before it didn't fall
atop the tee he'd set for me
and i swung.
one warm and stormy day i knew
the tallest trees in wind all blew,
the clouds rolled out on evening's brow,
lightning stung.
i've tied so many laces
i've run so many races
i've been so many places
is this really the last?
i've said so many graces
i've left so many spaces
i've seen so many faces
is yours really the last?
it all happened so fast
it all happened so fast
it all happened so fast
it all happened so
it all happened so fast
it all happened so fast
it all happened so fast
it all happened so fast.
