Without a Trace

You told the restaurant
It was my birthday today
You know I get nervous too
Do I have to meet your parents tonight
Your lipstick comes and goes on me
In your basement, scotch and my bloody valentine
The columbines on MTV
All of the parties we could have went to
Because we were teenagers
Because we were dreaming

My misplaced youth
Still goes to use
My amber blues
The leaves still make me swoon

Would you push me back? Tonight, tonight

Push me in the leaves
One more time, one more time
Because the seasons gonna change
And nothing's here to stay
I won't be here forever
You looked out to the world
And you fell into a dream
And then I called your name

You were scared so we went home
I said goodbye, my friends said where are you going
The streetlights guide you and I so far away
The trees swayed in the sky, and they hear you crying
I heard you crying

I swear I saw my shadow move without me
I reached out to hold myself and he touched me
I swear I saw my shadow move without me
