Goodness & Light

I like music but I can’t dance

And I can’t sing

I like lights because I am one

And I can shine

I like you but I can’t pretend

And I won’t lie

The sound of the shade is dark

To me

And I can’t sleep on that side

For long

Before I’m tired and dim

The designs of the smoke look pretty to some

The signs of the ending look pretty to some

Oh, I’m waiting for the morning

Hoping I look pretty

To you

That's when you show the most

To me
Do you see what I see?

alive

I was five I was five

She brushed my long hair

She was alive

Blonde and knotted

Oh, what she was allotted

She took that and combed it too

She got through

She played that hand

She was dealt

And she was always dealing

With the lies with the lies

She stayed alive

I got through too

Blonde in waves and knots

We loved what we got

Together we held hands

And she sang an old song

We always got along

Though he lied though he lied

She held me tight

Though I misbehaved

I didn’t care I didn’t care

She held me tight

Through the country nights

She was alive and she held me tight

The crickets and the mice

She sang me to sleep

Though I misbehaved

I was five I was five

I wish she was alive
