On the Lam

Do you remember mid-late May in the early 80s
Do you remember Melbourne Avenue
He was caught before with a girl on his arm
And harm on his mind, and the arrogance to get by
Does that sound familiar

I remember January 2020
I left Lincoln and met you at the station
We spoke a while in the rain, you looked different
Older even, a little more grown up too

We tried to see something even close to reason
We tried, but agreed to disagree
We tried to think of something to believe in
We tried, but agreed to disagree

Will we remember the heat that hit us in 2016
I was 24 and you were barely 18
Looking back, a mistake I made
I misread the signals
Thought that I'd be fine until I wasn't

I tried to see something even close to reason
I tried, but it never came to me
I tried to think of something to believe in
I tried, but it never came to me

Do you remember skimming stones on the southern coast
You can never know how much that meant to me
