lyrics

The loveliest of the seasons
Is when all the leaves are dying
That has a way of affecting
The way that I hold love

It hurts to have a memory of something
Gone that you still love just not like you
used to

My dad built our house next door
To the home he longed to live in
He was alive in the dream I had
Six lifetimes ago

We took a drive in his red toyota
He wasn’t mute like he was in life
We were heart to heart

He said Lee--I know what it means to be
Told that I love you just not like I used to
And I’ve had memories of people gone that I
still love just not like I used to

Love and death they’re a weighted coin
That you flip til you come up one side
And the loss of truth in a memory
Is green then gold then gone

Spring is here and it feels awkward
Friends are being reborn
And thinking back on the crimson fall
Is a melancholy glossy dying flare

Looking back at what I once held to be
Strong and I want to lean on like I used to
But I’m gone--I’m a constantly moving sun
What I love now is a shade cast from the old one
the old one
What I love now is a shade cast from the old one
