i painted your room at midnight
so i’d know yesterday was over
i put all your books on the top shelf
even the one with the fourleaf clover
man i’m gettin’ older
i took all your pictures off the wall
and wrapped them in a newspaper blanket
i haven’t slept in what seems like a century
and now i can barely breathe
just like a crow chasing the butterfly
dandelions lost in the summer sky
when you and i were gettin’ high as outer space
i never thought you’d slip away
i guess i was just a little too late
your words still serenade me
your lullabies won’t let me sleep
i’ve never heard such a haunting melody
oh it’s killin’ me
you know i can barely breathe
just like a crow chasing the butterfly
dandelions lost in the summer sky
when you and i were gettin’ high as outer space
i never thought you’d slip away
i guess i was just a little too late
interlude
just like a crow chasing the butterfly
dandelions lost in the summer sky
when you and i were gettin’ high as outer space
i never thought you’d slip away
like a crow chasing the butterfly
dandelions lost in the summer sky
when you and i were gettin’ high as outer space
i never thought you’d slip away
i guess i was just a little too late
just a little too late
