Oak

I don't miss that much
Missing is all I do
The way the trees swayed in the summer night air
The way the room changed with music's sweet tear
I miss you that much

I didn't love the way things were
Loving was all I did
The way your eyes glowed on the dock after dawn
The way the sun danced when the night was all gone
I loved the way things were

But if you wanna come home we'll dance in the shadows
And sing until our voices give out
And we'll climb the old oak tree
And walk through the garden
And smile at the days to come

I don't remember much
Remembering's all I do
The way you grew up and got lost and got lonely
The first day that felt like night and night only
I remember that much

But if you wanna come home we'll dance in the shadows
And sing until our voices give out
And we'll climb the old oak tree
And walk through the garden
And smile at the days to come

And it won't just be me laying under this blanket
Of grief and fear and unsettled songs
You'll lay down beside me
Keep believing the stories
That one day the night will be dawn
I miss you that much
