you would not believe how this came up
two apartments ago and downtown
a picture of you sleeping in my chair.
i sang songs for you because i cared
about you and me.
you and me.

don't tell me that i'm the clever one.
we live like it's all been said and done.
everything i say now feels contrived.
i just want you to believe i tried.
i tried hard for you and me.
you and me.

there's a little section of my town
that reminds me of the place you lived.
cherry blossoms blow out of the trees.
i get lost but i know what i've seen.
