00:00Oh, the tire swing still sways in the August heat
00:03With nobody left to write it
00:05Your initials hide in the oak tree skin
00:08Fading slow, still surviving
00:10Too rusted church, keep our secrets now
00:23Where we swore we'd never grow up
00:25Your life's still trapped in the firefly light
00:28But the jar's been empty since you left that night
00:34They paved our dirt road last spring
00:43But I still walk it in my dreams
00:47Past an old trespassing sign
00:53Where your hand used to fit in mine
00:58Oh, this backyard's a timeless sheet
01:02Every dandelion's a wish we can't remake
01:07The cheers still whisper our names
01:11But the road don't lead to you no more
01:14Music falls to silence just to where we began
01:19I found your blight beneath the blackberries
01:27Wheels stuck in vines like our old plans
01:30The kickstands rusted in permanent pause
01:32Like when you dropped it when life called you off
01:37Maybe ghosts aren't always dead
01:46Just love that never left
01:49Like the scent of your sunscreen
01:51Still on the porch swing in July
01:53Hold this back
01:54You're the hologram
01:57And I know
01:58I'm above every what might be
02:01Cause it's all gravel, Satan
02:04The cheers still hold our shadows close
02:06The road still wears our barefoot
02:09No ghosts
02:10I guess some goodbyes never end
02:13Oh, this backyard's a time machine
02:27Every dandelion's a wish we can't remake
02:33The cheers still whisper our names
02:34The tears still whisper our names
02:36But the road don't lead to you no more
02:41Music falls to silence
02:44Just to where we began
02:46Just to where we began
02:48Every dandelion's a wish we can't remake
02:52The cares still whisper our names
02:56But the road don't lead to you no more
02:59Music falls to silence
03:01Just to where we began
03:04I know
03:07Rested at last never ends
