Swallows swooping low over the marshlands, pale sun fading fast still silhouettes the trees and I live and breathe the same air, ten years ago we shared, before you left, sands of time they say, will heal the memories, long summers gone it seems 'forever' wasn't quite just what you meant, and I live and breathe the same air ten years ago we shared, before you left, if you stood on this rock, where we last kissed and made our vows forever, if you could smell the wildest heather maybe this could be forever, one more time, this God-forsaken place has seen some changes, and with each change I feel an insult to our time, and I live and breathe the same air ten years ago we shared, before you left, a hazy spring I think I took for granted, counting petals that I assumed belonged to me, Im a fool that's chasing rainbows through the sunshine and the rain and a spirit wild and free.
