Too close.

 it's so close

the day

the day she goes away

...there's not a cloud in sight

it's as blue as your blue goodbye

and i thought that it would rain

on a day like today...

i collapsed in her lap

she lay hands on my back

as i cried

cradled 

let it go

let it go, picked me up

and carried me through

 

i laughed til i could no longer breathe today

talking s**t with my girl

my favourite girl

my girl

 

i told her a secret

my secret

our secret

she didn't

wouldn't 

judge me

 

come home

 

before you go...

 

come home

 

...and i thought that it would rain

the day you went away...

I really think that the lyrics tangle well with the rest of the piece. I liked it very much :) i liked taht i could see everything playing out in my head while i was reading it. That's important to me when i'm reading something.
Thanks for the great write!
Love,
K
