Our Golden Years Ahead

from Our Golden Years Ahead by Dullwood

lyrics

You are the vowels that run through my lips
My fingers are planes and your skin is the airstrip
When I'm lost in the dark woods at night then
You are my searchlight

I recall when we were alone for the first time
In the attic I was holding your hand in mine
And when we kissed in the dark we were
Swaying like violin strings


But we talked until early dawn
Then I brought you home and on my way back
I couldn't tell if this was real or
If a dream is a dream is a dream is only a dream

And I was laying awake all night
Pondering the state of the universe
And how it's all gonna end
And where we come from and where we'll go
When all is said and done
But the silence never comes
Unless the consiousness is gone


Yes, I'm always so obsessed with the past
Because your dreams seem all bright while mine are desperately vast
But I truly believe that our golden years are
Still ahead of us

I gave you many reasons to just walk away
And it was me all over to just stay in place
And I don't think that I was the man
You deserved then


And I was down in a rabbit hole
I couldn't see light until you pulled me out
And propped me up and spoon-fed me with love

Do you remember the idle days
When I used to smoke so much I couldn't even smell your perfumed breast
And I drank so much in vain hope to forget at least one letter of your name
Or a single freckle in your face
But I couldn't
