I remember the view out the back of the car

Left the front door wide open

Maybe it's a sign that we shouldn't be going

I didn't realise it'd be so hard

You and me, sitting on the trampoline

I think one time we fell asleep

Woke up and felt like it'd been weeks

And now it truly has been

(Forgive yourself)

It wasn't meant to be but it's funny how

Life dealt this cheat

To someone who could handle it so well

And while you sleep in the pouring rain

Just know I'll be with you someday

And I'll have a good one 'til then

Just like you told me

I wish we could’ve played that game sometime

I wish we’d talked more online

I’m glad you liked my picture

I stuck it up inside my locker

Becoming disconnected

Really puts into perspective

How important every friend is who makes you wanna live

And this time it’s okay to cry

Black sweatpants and pasta with ketchup

When your sister ate the slug it was the grossest thing ever

Collecting beetles in the garden together

You're welcome anytime in my dreams

Muddy hands and climbing trees

Sink-tall while we brush our teeth

Striped shirts and hide and seek

It's all coming back to me

While you sleep on a sunny day

Just know I'll remember you always

And no matter how much it hurts

It's not goodbye, just see you later

And while you sleep in the pouring rain

Just know I'll be with you someday

And I'll have a good one 'til then

Just like you told me
