Gold ran the autumn sky and often we would fly
Above, arms out on the freezing sun
Our jackets held us warm as dancing leaves would form
Walls, we'd take each others hands and we would run
Goodbyes and see you soons most every afternoon
Made the lonely nights a bit easier to take
You took a downward bend, night swung you back again
Learned it takes a lot to watch a person break
Those lakes of ours drying up
Even though we kept trying, trying
Smooth hands that I'd been stripped of
I hit the ground till I was flying, flying
Those lakes of ours drying up
Even though we kept trying, trying
Smooth hands that I'd been stripped of
I hit the ground till I was flying, flying
Gold ran the autumn sky (every inch that we grew)
And often we would fly (everything that we'd do)
Above (planted seeds)
Arms out on the freezing sun (throughout the weeds)
Our jackets held us warm (and when it reached the sky)
As dancing leaves would form (it was a mile high)
Walls (and we'll always know)
We'd take each others hands and we would run (there's ground below)
Every inch that we grew (every inch that we grew)
Everything that we'd do (everything that we'd do)
Planted seeds (planted seeds)
Throughout the weeds (throughout the weeds)
And when it reached the sky (it reached the sky)
It was a mile high (it was a mile high)
And we'll always know (we'll always know)
There's ground below
