That year the spring was six months long
And love could do no wrong
Filled up with hope and all the answers

The sun was stapled to the sky
A junior prom, July
And we at center stage were the dancers

I knew you when the air was cold, I'm there again
My dress was blue and it lay across the chair
Because I loved you

I knew you well
Your heart could melt like caramel
Your eyes were deep like the silent muddy stream

Where the tadpoles dream
? against the child
We'd fall asleep

That year the fog would climb the beach
And wrapped us out of reach from searchlights
That the sky was sending

I knew you first, I knew you best
I knew you from the rest
I knew you when the spring was ending

As time takes hold
You may feel we're growing old
But in my praying, I will you see you as you were

And you'll remain the time that you
Of now and then, it's only me
I knew you when
