how dare you throw me in the river to drown again
run away and show my heart to all your friends
and how dare you leave me too full to float on
driftwood eyes in an ocean
I'll hold on loose
do you write the tides or do the tides write you?
I only want to write about you with a purple pen
I only wanna hold your hand a little longer, too
when I'm all out of ink and we get to the gate again
I'll see us hand in hand on the moon
Melissa, let's trade eyes
won't you show me how a poet sings?
I'm stumbling over everything
oh, Melissa, where's the line?
from the Longfellow Bridge to some day in the Fall
from that look in your eyes I can see it all
or not
if I stare too long will the driftwood rot?
my ribs ache with our laughter
my knees shake as our days pass
I've got a hot, candle wax heart
how about you?
they said "love is infinite but time is not"
and maybe we'll find the facts
or maybe we'll find ourselves on the moon
and I want to look out at the world
through the gap in the teeth of your smile
I want to look out to September coming soon
the way I see it we've got a little while
and after that I'll see you on the moon
My dear friend Toren and I collaborated on these songs during our freshman year at Connecticut College when we performed as an acoustic duo. Sad, playful, painfully young, and pretty good. Connor Storms
