Bilingual
I came here to be teachable so teach me
I know it seems the lessons seldom ever reach me
for all the years I've been pushing you away
goodbye does not get any easier to say
Now I recall playing candy shop
I sold you erasers, glass beads and bottle tops
an old shirt of yours I've been wearing now for months
thread bare and torn stains on the front
So if my arms can no longer reach you
and my smile can't find you where you lay
there's a pocket in my heart where I'll always keep you
that's where you are today
ย
We do such strange things when we're hurting
our words like animals caged and uncertain
don't you know that she's losing her mother
now she's never gonna have another
So if my arms can no longer reach you
and my smile can't find you where you lay
there's a pocket in my heart where I'll always keep you
that's where you are today
I hold you there today
ย
Riding in the back seat staring down the yellow moon
coming home from your house past the old Grand Union
every time we'd leave you'd blow kisses from the window
and I'd keep waving till we were too far up the road
every time we'd leave you'd blow kisses from the window
yeah you and me were never good at letting go
