was it not - Marian Hill

I’ve been around the world more than once

You said it’s something we should do

I found a Polaroid crumpled at the bottom

I couldn’t tell if it was you

Was it May on the lake, was it not?

Everything is a dream I forgot

When we stayed in LA, was it hot?

Everything is a dream I forgot (I forgot)

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it?

I don’t even know where you are

Was it you who taught me to count the stars?

Or maybe that was later with someone else

Up on the roof, that lilac smell

Was it May on the lake, was it not?

Everything is a dream I forgot

When we stayed in LA, was it hot?

Everything is a dream I forgot (I forgot)

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?

I took the Polaroid, picked it up

Thought I might hang it in my room

That thought, it lingered there, hovered for a second

I couldn’t find the place for you

I don’t even know how I feel

Was it you who asked me if love was real?

I don’t know if you meant it, but over time

You found your way and I found mine

Did we drive through the night, did we walk?

Everything is a dream I forgot

Was it I said goodbye, was it not?

Everything is a dream I forgot

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?

Was, was it not?

W-w-w-was it, was it?

When we stayed in LA, was it hot?

(Was, was it not?)

(W-w-w-was it, was it, was it not?)

Everything is a dream I forgot
