Heather

Here were young and we were running through the fields of heather
Carelessly lighthearted in the sun
Not thinking about the future we felt immortal
Our life together only just begun

But the change of seasons made us different
There was something in the way you looked at me
I couldn’t deal with the change within you
I just wanted to be free

We used to climb the tower to our secret hide out
Where we had so many secrets to share
I didn’t understand when you poured your heart out
I ran away into the open air

And I pray release us
From this adolescent burden
Make our lives as they used to be
But there is no one to stop the hourglass from turning
Time moves on like you but without me
