You knew where the lights went
you’d kiss me
you point to the garden
and shush me
The trees are all twisted
and carefree
We settle and listen
heard nothing
You broke the latch on covered gates
And ripped the cord that held in place
We put our fingers in the cracks
And never knew we'd make it back
Somewhere through that door, we’ll take it
We woke up in sunlight
and sand cakes
And tried out the coastline
with smoke breaks
We filled up our pockets
With hairpins
Put rusted out lockets
In coke tins
You broke the latch on covered gates
And ripped the cord that held in place
We put our fingers in the cracks
And never knew we'd make it back
Somewhere through that door, we’ll take it
Lights are fading
This is where we find a reason
