First Love

I keep a light on where you used to sit and say
You can make it if you get out of your own way
And I don’t know where all these years have gone but I
Hold onto you whenever I need to be strong
I want to tell you that I miss your smiling face
I fight to build a life erasing time and space
So we can travel when and where we need to be
To hear the sound of your laughter all around me
Do you remember the time?
And the way
The way you used to shine
I know things
Things were much simpler then
I was already
So restless when I was ten
Do you remember when?
Your mom would call us in at dinner time
We were so alive playing in the sunshine chasing fire flies
Do you remember when?
I'd watch you at recess playing with your friends
Wanted you to see me you to be with me
You were my big secret
First love
