These Are The Things
Curly brown hair no brush could tame
But she never needed it any other way
Cause you're not self conscious yet
At that age
Big brown freckles in the summer sun
And she never could hurt no one
Building tree forts, fishing on the lake
Catching frogs at the pond
Oh, you know, she was my friend
Long weekend camping at some forgotten park
Ghost stories around the campfire after dark
Roasting marshmallows on a stick
Moonlight shadows growing thick
Soon the autumn leaves must fall
Tobogganing on a cold winters days
Or hockey on the ice rink that Dad made
Snowball fights with a friend
Making angels and fat snowmen
Scarlet cheeks in the cold winter wind
But it was so long ago
And it was so damn hard
And it's been so many life times spent apart
And the memories, like so many grains of sand
Slip through my hand
These are the things that break my heart
But she never needed it any other way
Cause you're not self conscious yet
At that age
Big brown freckles in the summer sun
And she never could hurt no one
Building tree forts, fishing on the lake
Catching frogs at the pond
Oh, you know, she was my friend
Long weekend camping at some forgotten park
Ghost stories around the campfire after dark
Roasting marshmallows on a stick
Moonlight shadows growing thick
Soon the autumn leaves must fall
Tobogganing on a cold winters days
Or hockey on the ice rink that Dad made
Snowball fights with a friend
Making angels and fat snowmen
Scarlet cheeks in the cold winter wind
But it was so long ago
And it was so damn hard
And it's been so many life times spent apart
And the memories, like so many grains of sand
Slip through my hand
These are the things that break my heart
