Do you think about those things we said we’d do?
Back when my skirts were long, and stares felt shorter too
I’ve grown an inch since then, or maybe two at short
I hope you’re singing still, Ma always loved your sort
Did you move out fast? Just like we spoke about
I’m sure your hair grew long, but your jeans are still cut short
I see your sister ‘round, she’s got a laugh like yours
I hope you sing about, our summer, after course
Well I’m a long long ways, away from home
And I’m not sure if I still belong
I’ll try to look back to what we both would say
But I think I might just go back
To Kempenfelt Bay
I’ve got a job downtown, not much to brag about
I spend my nights alone, oh just tryin’ to catch my thoughts
I saw a man like you, stood tall with shoulders taut
I like to wonder ‘bout, The girl whose heart you caught
Well I’m a long long ways, away from home
And I’m not sure if I still belong
I’ll try to look back to what we both would say
But I think I might just go back
To Kempenfelt Bay
Well the moon is dimming, and I’m tired of swimming
Through my pools of linen, regrets of careful women
I’ll just close my window, so the night seems thinner
Through my room of fever-less sighs
Well I’m a long long ways, away from home
And I’m not sure if I still belong
I’ll try to look back to what we both would say
But I think I might just go back
To Kempenfelt Bay

Catch You

You say you’re thinking of moving
well I’m thinking of moving too
you’re an inch short of a fair warning
and I know the market’s never been this good
there’s a clear break for healing
it’s a blue sky for a ceiling
if I could catch the rays
teach the sun how to behave
maybe I could catch you
You say you’re thinking of quitting
well I’m thinking of quitting too
it’s some hard times for a girl waiting
and I’m growing older lyin’ next to you
I’m a free bird in motion
you’re a prayin’ man with no devotion
If I could rewrite the word
show your god I know my worth
Maybe I could catch you
Think of me sweetly
I’m countin’ all my dreams
about you
I’ll write one more song
though they all turn out so wrong
they’re about you
‘cuz I reaped all the benefits of loving
mastered my defence to hide all my blushing
caught up in the lies we always kept on telling
like anything was ever gonna happen
I only know your body as a weapon
I taking no time to try and rip me open
how to know?
there’s no hope
that I could catch you

Caught Myself

I first caught myself
and stopped myself
from loving you
wind could fill my bones
with cold I hald
your warmth in me
I’m silly for thinking
you’d want my love
I walked home alone
I said goodbye
to all your friends
told you not to call
I needed time
to clear my head
I’m silly for thinking
you’d want my love
I walked too fast
I couldn’t get back soon enough
I threw my phone and punched a wall
I get angry when I’m sad
poor, stupid me
no foresight
I’ll see this coming next time
put up my walls
I’ll block it all
I’m silly for thinking
you’d want my love
I first caught myself
and stopped myself
from loving you
