An Evening I Will Not Forget (Acoustic)

When love was found
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue

Coming down
And we've had problems that we've grown through
But I bet you dream of what you could do

At seventeen I was alright
Was like nothing I could feel inside
And wishing you were here tonight
Is like holding on

But I still get to see your face, right?
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight
Hoping this will be right
Time to show your worth, child

I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit
That's no way to be living kid
The angel of death is ruthless

And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out
Pushing our luck, getting wiped out
Days with nothing but laughing loud

Underneath my coat you tap my shoulder, hold my hand
Nights with nothing but dark in there
You could be my armour then

Island smiles and cardigans
The nights that we've been drinking in
We're here to help you kill
All of this hurt that you've been harbouring

Confessions should be better planned
Alone, that night, I'm surely damned
Run away, I'll understand

What's important is this evening I will not forget
Purple, blue, orange, red
These colours of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it

I think about it all the time
Lights went out, you were fine
You kinda struggle not to shine

I still love you though
I still love you though
I still love you always

So hold me when I'm home
Keep the evenings long
Crack and break and part ways

I still love you though
I still love you though
I still love you always

So hold me when I'm home
Keep the evenings long
Crack and break and part ways

And I wonder if I could let her down

It's for real, it's for real
It's for real, it's for real
