Lyric

I wanted to tell you, I loved those summers

And the warm wind that makes you feel alive

But I couldn't wait for them to end

And you were the most obvious reason

I wanted to say it, but I never told you

And that's not the only thing you don't know

You were the best time of those years

I wanted to say it, but I never did

Yes, I never did

Afternoons spent listening to songs

Deciphering words and giving them a verse

With the sky filling the window

Brightening our little universe

I don't know what to call it, and it doesn't matter

That worm that dug deep

But I felt good in that amniotic space of mine

With you, while I learned to be in the world

I wanted to say it, but I never could

And I was dying a little inside, but I believed

That freeing myself of what I felt

Would cost everything I already had

And thinking back, after so many years

I feel neither regrets nor bitterness

Because you were never suffering

But only an unshakeable certainty

Afternoons spent listening to songs

Deciphering words and giving them a verse

With the sky filling the window

Brightening our little universe

I don't know what to call it, and it doesn't matter

That worm that dug deep

But I felt good in that amniotic space

With you, while I was learning to be in the world

The only unshakeable certainty

In that complex existential magma

An invitation to share the path

Of a convulsive and cerebral growth

I don't know what to call it, and it doesn't matter

That worm that dug deep

But I felt good in that amniotic space

With you, while I was learning to be in the world
