Love Bug Sonata

Slowly realizing with some help that life has never been about the things that we can live without but the things we can’t I wore you socks to bed instead because thoughts of you ran through my head and I couldn’t get them out instead I wondered if it was me you thought about Telephone poles stood like crosses across from the insane train that took me swaying away from the place where we used to chase our teems of dreams through leafy trees I thought in that spot that I could never live without your crazy, lazy, always hazy smile Come back to me for a while? You’re family reaches a peak that can only be described as a shriek or a squeak but I loved them right away without having to stay or say much of anything at all Never felt very comfortable with anyone who was punctual but we showed up late to every date we made We paid the price with grains of rice and were always nice and sought forgiveness from the villains, who were taking our time, Don’t worry because I know its fine Realized that I could live without everything else that the world was about as long as you shared my thoughts and lent me your socks, slept in my bed and ravaged my head with crazy ideas I’d never come close to grasping always relapsing about Found out what friendship was all about and that I couldn’t live without the girls who made me want to shout and that’s what life is all about and what I’ll always live for.
