It was a second ago
I was touching every finger
I seen the marigolds
That lean against our window
That you planted in the springtime
And you watered with abandon
I would watch you as you garden
And my heart would just imagine
When i look behind
I guess i could have noticed
And that's half the crime
I was innocently hopeful
Could have listened to your breathing
It was heavy on my shoulder
There were things i could have told you
It was easier to hold you
Now how can i
Be not allowed to love you anymore
Can i be not allowed to love you
Was the thing that i was best at
That i didn't have to guess at
It was all that i could say i knew for sure
I can't say it anymore
Will you think of me
Will i fade into some corner of your memory
And in my company
All the ones that came before me
Fallen soldiers of your army
If you could tell them for me
I'd have stayed despite the warnings
And how can i
Be not allowed to love you anymore
Can i be not allowed to love you
Was the thing that i was best at
That i didn't have to guess at
It was all that i could say i knew for sure
I can't say it anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Oh how can i
Be not allowed to love you anymore
Can i be not allowed to love you anymore
Can i be not allowed to love you anymore
Was the thing that i was best at
That i didn't have to guess at
It was all that i could say i knew for sure
I can't say it anymore
