If you asked him he'd whisper "oh brother, you will figure it out when you're older.
"You can think about all that has passed, when you're ten feet underneath the grass."
Sheepishly shuffle to their beat, impressing her never came easily.
But you know it will always look good, like vacations your grandparents took.
Should've wished for a sister or brother, instead of a childhood lover.
Just give up on your teenage dreams, and swim in the Florida keys.
You can always give up on your dreams, and swim in the Florida keys.
