Only In The Past Lyrics

Run away to the seashore
It doesn't matter anymore
It doesn't matter anymoreWords dry up and fly away
With the passing of the days
Eventually you just let the stone fallI dreamed that I saw you
You were down at the corner store
You were looking through magazines
And you flew out the doorI was trying to wave to you
But you wouldn't wave back
Now you know I understand
You're with me only in the pastMy palms are not open
They're closed, they're closedColors streak the sky
We laugh and we cry
And we dance in the cool grass
With the firefliesWe dance in the cool grass
Sunset birds
Sweet, sweet music
Swallow our wordsYou set sail and you left this town

Run away, run away
You're so far from me now
So far from me nowRun away to the seashore
It doesn't matter anymore
It doesn't matter anymoreI dreamed that I saw you
You were down at the corner store [unverified]
