House on Lee Street

Falling asleep makes tomorrow come too soon*
she said, «stay up with me tonight, we can talk about the moon.»
Anything but a house up on Lee St. that’s framed in June,
that I drive by late at night, whenever Autumn comes too soon
Here comes another spiral, here comes another face
Here comes another girl, I probably won’t erase
but it’s just that time of year when all this starts to bloom
but she don’t know how I got lost
Every song stays a reminder, of October air
that hovered outside a house on Lee St. when you and I were there
and all those things come tumbling by me year after year
why do I seem to collide with everything that doesn’t disappear
this blur goes by, it aint for me
we sit and wait for things to change on Lee St. when you leave
a raindrop falls and these clouds go by another year lived and another year
it died, without you
Here comes another spiral, here comes another face
Here comes another girl, I probably won’t erase
but it’s just that time of year when all this starts to bloom
but she don’t know how I got lost
I’m not good at much of anything these days since I left you
inside that house on Lee St. between a shadow or two
but there’s a mix-tape somewhere that says all the things I thought I knew
If I could only remember, I may have missed that blur of you
this blur goes by, it aint for me
we sit and wait for things to change on Lee St. when you leave
a raindrop falls and these clouds go by another year lived and another year
it died, without you
Here comes another spiral, here comes another face
Here comes another girl, I probably won’t erase
but it’s just that time of year when all this starts to bloom
but she don’t know how I got lost in the moon
