An Evening I Will Not Forget

When love was found

I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to

Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue

And coming down

And we've had problems that we've grown through

But I bet you dream of what you could do

At seventeen, I was alright

Was like nothing I could feel inside

And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on

But I still get to see your face, right?

And that's like nothing they can take, right?

So there won't be no feeling in the firelight

Hoping this'll be right

Time to show your worth, child

I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit

That's no way to be living kid

The angel of death is ruthless

And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out

Pushing our luck, getting wiped out

Days with nothing but laughing loud

Underneath my coat, won't you tap my shoulder, hold my hand

Nights with nothing but dark in there

You could be my armor then

Island smiles and cardigans

The nights that we've been drinking in

We're here to help you kill all of this hurt that you've been harboring

Confessions should be better planned

Alone, that night, I'm surely damned

Run away, I'll understand

What's important is this evening I will not forget

Purple, blue, orange, red

These colors of feeling

Give me love, I'll put my heart in it

And I think about it all the time

Lights went out, you were fine

You kinda struggle not to shine

I still love you, though

I still love you, though

I still love you always

So hold me when I'm home

Keep the evenings long

Crack and break and part ways

I still love you, though

I still love you, though

I still love you always

So hold me when I'm home

Keep the evenings long

Let's not crack and break and part ways

And I wonder if I could let her down

It's for real, it's for real

It's for real, it's for real
