lyrics

It's air like this that makes me remember when
The grass was green and I was in my head

All the hours idle looking out
I sat around, waiting for that sound

I look back
And feel that way

Walk right by and stand there till they see
I'm not mad, but I wouldn't call it great

Walking slowly, I tried
To say out loud
But with the pauses between you
You saved me every time

I look back
And feel that way
