Smothered In Hugs

In the summer that you came

There was something eating everyone

And the sunshine fund was low

We couldn't greet you with a simple hello

And the watchers of the flood

Were busy in their chambers

Making sure there was new blood

To sustain their dying veins

But I believed you

No need for further questioning

I-I'm gonna leave with you

You can teach me all you know

Which way will we go now

On our trip to taller windows?

I really don't know now

I really don't know

In the winter that you left

There was business as usual

With the same old fears and frustrations

But the word got out, it was really such a pity

But the judges and the saints

And the textbook committee

Decided you should be left out

Not even mentioned

But I believed you

No need for further questioning

I-I'm gonna leave with you

You can teach me all you know

Which way will we go now

On our trip to taller windows?

I really don't know now
