Imogene

That summer night
Was freckled with fireflies
You had a look that I was either
Too young or too dumb to recognize
But I remember that moon, I remember that night
Sure as hell remember that light
That shimmering light
You were hemorrhaging light

Imogene
How couldn't things be alright
Imogene
Why couldn't we be alright

You could say that I was never there enough
You could say that I'm a no-account ne'er-do-well, roustabout, detestable, itinerent, excrable degenerate
Fair enough
You could say that I was a waste of your time
But to say I tried to make you cry is just asinine

Imogene
Can you imagine me trying
Imogene
Have you ever seen me try

We poked fun at the pain
We stoked the sun in the rain
You was a runaway train
I was a runaway train
But in the bloom of the wreckage
We were one in the same
We were one in the same
We were one in the same

This coming night could still do you some good
The sun is setting just as red as when you used to blush
I know it's been a while now mama, but you used to could
We've got to act on the embers
Ash won't remember the way back
To fire

Imogene
Is there anything you require
Hey Imogene
Name a single thing you desire
