Apologies linger on the seaways
Sandwiches which crumb up all the plates
I wish I could erase all these days
Diving off and digging into dates
We'll wish these memories would last
But good ones all fall far too fast
And the bad ones -collected in your pocket once more
We linger green and red suspicions
Letting go of our unopened gifts
Paying off our oversold positions
Burning off the bridge across the rifts
We'll wish these memories would last
But good ones all fall far too fast
And the sad ones - coming back together once more
There we see a seabird swimming homeward
With a cry regarded once as crass
Driving home reversed, I feel so backward
These times were set unfortunately fast
We'll wish these memories would last
But good ones all fall far too fast
And the last ones - falling out together once more
