Back to the Future

Do you remember our future?

Well, I do

We saw the arrow from the archer

Aiming true

The plans we made and promises

The love we swore we always would renew

If we could go back to the future

Would you?

The day you brought home a Silver Princess in a pot

I helped you plant it by the back fence

The perfect spot

All that summer, every eve

You watered it and sang to make it grow

Now that tree nods to strangers

We'll never know

Pleasures are like poppies spread

You seize the flower, the bloom is shed

Or like the snow falls on the river

A moment white, then gone forever

The plans we made and promises

The dreams we never thought would not come true

If we could go back to the future

If we could go back to the future

If we could go back to the future

Would you?
