nadine

you were always bigger than those flower pots, and i know that there were days you settled in, but even in the grit, you'd find a way to dream, to look outside the changing of the wind, pictures faded slowly out of focus, when you said you were moving to chicago in the spring, windows closed up and colors turned to black and white, and bottles kept me hanging by a string, you believed that somewhere there were answers, inside of me, still frames in my mind, and hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, nadine, and sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, nadine, every day's a forest of asperity, when you think about the life you could have found, i hope one day the sun will find its way to me, cause the carousel up there sure beats the ground, you believed that somewhere there were answers, inside of me, forever in my mind, and hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, nadine, and sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, nadine, nadine, hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, nadine, sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, nadine, hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, nadine, and sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, nadine, nadine
