I walked to your house just to see if you were home
I cut thru the alleys and yards
I walked in the dark and in the stars
The faintest mem'ry of where our feet stood before
The parking lot
I sat on the chair squished next to your stereo
Looking through music and books
Talking about hearts in space
A faded picture that we had smiled for at last
I think it was
Time was a messenger in the waves were the breath of the ocean
Light fills the space all round the park sharing leaves falling silent
Time was the heartless shadow
Time was the twisted ladder
Time was the dust-filled cavern
Time was the broken lantern
Time was a sideways promise
Time was the drums in autumn
Time was the steps to your room
Time was the steps back to home
Time has never been a friend
To the ones I love
And the sun, and the moon, and the earth and the sky
Conspire against us
I walked to your house just to see if you were home
I cut thru the alleys and yards
I walked in the dark and in the stars
The faintest mem'ry of where our feet stood before
The parking lot
