pool party

i was shorter than my dad's dining table, you were taller than my bedroom door frame, hit me hard when i found height don't make a man, no, you grew smaller to me that saturday when, you came crashing, crawling down through the back brush, eyes were bloodshot and your leaden voice thin, you said, "i won't blame you now," but i caught your cold somehow, then you jumped right in, oh, i wanna give you all of my love, but i watched you sink as they swam above, you are the land and i am the dove, my heart is heavy when you're high, so, for me, why won't you try?, said you're sorry you were drinking through the day, then, only stopped to let your lungs take the hit, you said, "i won't blame you now," but you lost my love somehow, then you jumped right in, oh, i wanna give you all of my love, but i watched you sink as they swam above, you are the land and i am the dove, my heart is heavy when you're high, so, for me, why won't you try?
