Visiting a Friend

I'm glad I came to see you today, since we last met, my life has been in a little disarray, but there was something about the orange in the sky, I couldn't help but think of you when I looked up high, I was thinking about the fall when we made those crazy face pumpkins, and how my heart quickened when your hand brushed my skin, I was also thinking about those romantic picnics on the car park rooftop, and how one night we were interrupted by a traffic cop, they say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but it's so hard when you're too far yonder, so in the meantime I will visit you at this special place, and in a sense we are face to face, I don't mind doing all the talking, and in my mind we're always somewhere walking, you've got me crying again, telling me how I should be brave, but I was going to cry anyway standing at your grave.
