Feverdream

You said you don't mind when summer fades away
Your favorite car died and in the meantime you're driving your dad's til yours arrives
It's midnight grey

And I didn't tell you that I had a dream
Of you in my sunroom
You grabbed my hand and said that I had to have known that you've always loved me
Someone walked in and then
You walked away

Maybe that was you in another dimension
Trying to reach me
Or teach me a lesson

The sun on my left shoulder
From the rooftop, where we sat after some time
I forgot you were older

I see the first letters of our names, carved in arbitrary places
When we're together
My mind blurs out the other faces

I had a thought tonight, almost couldn't stand
Before you met me in town
Did you slip on your t-shirt and your Nike Airs
Did you look in the mirror with sweaty hands

I wish we had more than hour
Always running out of time
But one hour with you is better than all the hours in my life

You buried your face in my neck when we said goodbye
Melting ice-cream dripping down your spine
Already forgetting the shape of your face and the things that you had to say
And the walk back to my car was some kind of shade of midnight grey
