Lyrics Fill Rooms From Top To Bottom

"Lyrics Fill Rooms From Top To Bottom"

I sang a song and
Lyrics fill rooms from
Top to bottom through
The door they plan to make their escape
Destination includes warmer days

I built friendship out
Of fragments found on
An old backyard where
Their hearts never had a chance to bloom
Broken pieces recycle to new

And you could do the same too

I ran miles to
The town limits cause
Here's a place without
Any fear of crossing the outside
New thoughts easily enter my mind

I saw a note that
Spoke of love and so
I wrote a poem oh
One for anyone to read it read
"I like you, I like you, I like you"

And you could do the same too.

Fall Semester

"Fall Semester"

All these bags are filled with clothes
All these days are getting cold
I'm down to my last days here

...at home

I'll be the first one to leave
Don't forget about all our memories
Retell them before I go
Or we won't remember them anymore

All these words are left untold
All these thoughts are unresolved
And I left my dreams of you

...at home

I hope we can keep in touch
You say you'll see me when we both get back
But these things don't work out so much
Because of the distance spread out by months

And hey, I gotta go now
Everything's waiting in the car
You don't like saying goodbye
But I'll still think of you tonight
And hey, there's just this one last thing

Can you call me when you come back home?
