I try to remember the words I once heard

You get that picture in your mind
The morning glories bloomed by moonlight
All of your friends still wonder why
We went from shoulder to shoulder

Summer was high, we were storming inside

You were the first to be married

That they let you carry
I guess it is hard to quit
Silhouetted the tops of the bending pines
'Cause of all the smoke in our eyes
You were never good with a goodbye

You just turned your back and let it slide
You'll never deserve all of

Which you won't admit to beginning
You just let the shutter fly
Anticipating the myth of you
We’ll never grow up, we just got older
I chewed a hole right through my heart
On the dash of your mother's Chevy
You spoke them with courage
Stars went wheeling across the sky
Green grass stains on your bare feet
Few were the first, for sure
You drank the last of the sherry
From the very start
I took a piss on the wall, out back of a mall
