I was barely twenty two

When I started working with you

Serving tables in the city, both still young inside

Drinking in the dark we waited for the light

Snow was falling when you said you could die today

It broke my heart

You navigate the sky at night

Head to school right after your flight

I can’t keep track of your next move

When there’s so much that you want to prove

Snow was falling when you said you could die today

It broke my heart

You said you had it pretty good but the thought it tore me right apart

Let’s make a promise that we’ll quit our jobs

Find a way to do all the things that we want

Let’s make a promise that we intend to keep

You and me
