Two Years - Chew Lips

Followed you down to the beach tonight

Wearing two coats but nothing besides

Forget that we’re away from home

Pretend we’ve got a beach of our own

Always before but never again

In the tall white grass where we ran and slept

I lost my head but the ideas came

Sweating out words like a fevered game

And now that seems like it was lost in time

But for those two years he was a friend of mine

Summer’s so long and it’s running away

I lost my chain in the river that day

Watched that fire in the silent dark

And i found you crying in the back of your car

In the small hours while the embers glowed

And the light showed drops on your blanket folds

I let you rest from your tired life

Carving that soil with your daddy’s knife

And now it seems it was lost in time

But for those two years he was a friend of mine

Followed you down to the beach tonight

Followed you down to the beach tonight

Followed you down to the beach tonight
