Autumn Kites

I thought that you said
You’d be back in the summer
We’d dig in the garden and roll down the back yard hill
But you weren’t coming back
And you knew I knew that
Gone with the seasons got lost in the reasons to stay
Where you are

Now the summer’s gone fast
I plant this and that
Hoping I’m growing the seeds that I sowed with you
I see city lights
It’s just about night
Can’t help but thinking that I know where you are

Where you are is like
A rerun that’s stuck in my head
Where you are is like
Tide leaving sea foam on sand
It’s there for a moment
But like your reflection
It’s gone with the wind
And I don’t know which way I’m going

I blow summer a kiss
That I meant for your lips
Soars like the autumn kites
Soars till it’s out of sight
I let go of the slack
Cause I’m wanting you back
Can’t help but look for the one that got away

You slip through my fingers
Did you pull or did I let you go
Does a leaf want to stay when it lingers
Does the wind break it’s grasp as she blows
I think we’re all drifting round making sense of what comes and what goes
Till we find where we are
