Summer Pillow

(album: Dragonfly - 2017)

I am not, you are not
We are not like no other
I was blind, you were lost
We let it pull us under
I pleaded, you let me
I cried, you made it better
You needed to save me
And then you left

Isn't that life?
To give me that for just a minute and then take it back
And isn't that love?
To make me see everything that never will belong to me
And ain't it unkind?
Do my best, do my best
But you'll never be mine
What'll I do now? It's all that I know
That I died just a little inside on the day that I let you go

You told me to meet you
Down by the weeping willow
I wanted to keep you
Under my summer pillow
I twisted, you let me
I cried, you made it better
You shifted and held me
And then you left

Isn't that life?
To give me that for just a minute and then take it back
And isn't that love?
To make me see everything that never will belong to me
And ain't it unkind?
Do my best, do my best
But you'll never be mine
What'll I do now? It's all that I know
That I died just a little inside on the day that I let you go

Isn't that life?
To give me that for just a minute and then take it back
And isn't that love?
To make me see everything that never will belong to me
And ain't it unkind?
Do my best, do my best
But you'll never be mine
What'll I do now? It's all that I know
That I died just a little inside on the day that I let you go
On the day that I let you go

I am not, you are not
We are not like no other
