Nostalgia

This is what I recall not the highs yet still not the lows
But the moments left without a home
The times I thought would never last Nostalgia steals and places back
Into my eyes I see my past

Throughout our days we've been trying to fill this place
Through a polaroid lens and makeshift picture frames
For what our minds cant retain
But you could always replace these fractured scenes
Of us building a bridge only to cross a stream
But I can't say the same

They drive like cars on my minds Roads they pass caution signs
Warning not to remind
There shining brights say softly go to sleep baby dream
go back to those memories

Throughout our days we've been trying to fill this place
Through a polaroid lens and makeshift picture frames
For what our minds can't retain
But you could always replace these fractured scenes
Of us building a bridge only to cross a stream
But I can't say the same

I can't say the same I promise I'll always see
The summer you spent singing over me
My matted hair from lying in the leaves
Your father falling from the neighbors tree
The oceans salt and the autumn leaves
The scents still bring me to my knees
Oh how I dread this familiar breeze
For what it brings
For what it brings
