Em C G

so easily I forgot lifting

Em C G

the sandbox in Arizona and catching

Em C G

the geckos and keeping them as pets

Em C G

in a halloween candy's jack-o-lantern

Am G

their tails would fall clear from their bodies

and we'd shriek and we'd run from them

Em C G

keep on playing

Em C G

Em C G

my sister

Em C G

she is with me

Em C G

even when we are apart

Em C G

we were wading through the water

Em C G

flashlights flickering in the dark

Am G

climbing the laundry post in the tomato garden

Am G

spying on the neighbors swimming

Em C G

laughing

Em C G

we were laughing

Em C G

that night

Em C G

in Maine I met my best friend

Em C G

talking til 7am

Em C G

realizing we were both afraid of the notion

Em C G

of having our brains be in the body of a whale

Am G

in the ocean deep where the light don't reach

and I loved him instantly

Em C G

I knew we would keep talking

Em C G

talking

Em C G

on that drive

Em C G

up the winding mountain roads

Em C G

from Hudson to Vermont in the season's first

Em C G

snow, the boys asleep in the back of the car

Em C G

we were in the front we were singing along

Am G

to every word of the songs that helped make us who we are

at the top of our lungs

Em C G

singing

Em C G

singing

Em C G

my mother

Em C G

my mother she keeps a journal

Em C G

of her childhood memories as they return

Em C G

my favorite's the story recounting when she

Em C G

saw an eagle with a fish in its mouth

Em C G

she was ten and she wrote it down

Em C G

there's a sweetness in us that lives long past the dust

Em C G

on our eyes once our eyes finally close

Em C G
