[Verse 1]
A pleasant smile you gave
When your face lit up from riding
Strange horses near that bridge
Long waits in line
For pizza pies
A perfect time
To pack all your belongings
[Verse 2]
A promise that we made
In island shade
Far off the A
To keep your misery
In the note we left
A family death
Found treasure chest
Escape for you by mourning
[Verse 3]
All the painful signs
To run away
From hands that chased
You through the door that evening
With a knife we carved
A present fate
Our hidden place
Overgrown by names of others
[Verse 4]
As pirates set the sails
From Queens and back
Nights dressed in black
A long awaited funeral
For that drunken daze
Four cups in hand
Tinfoil band
Confusion laid with merry
[Chorus]
We had planned to do forever
A whisper in the woods
Plumes of smoke, we hid our fears
In ashes under soot
[Verse 5]
And the price we would pay
To celebrate your day of days
With hula hooping fingers
For which we fought
A war of hearts
Our house of cards
Demand to follow wishes
[Verse 6]
For a princess and a man
No master hands
Black cat and land
You'd only seldom visit
Until the house heat
Could not warm the floor
The walls or doors
But never froze those dancing
[Verse 7]
All the places we would sail
From sea to see
Those rolling scenes
Of barren land that rocked us
To sleep in a foreign state
Of tall-teared terrain
Release of chains
By bonds of family greater
[Verse 8]
A plan for city lights
Until a heart would stay
So far away
And only called to mention
The grace of fallen pine
In the land that made
You walk away
And tumble into hatred
[Chorus]
We had planned to do forever
A whisper in the woods
An oath was left to wither
In ashes under soot
[Outro]
On a bridge left behind
A simple rhyme
Inscribed in time
Reminder of a promise
You plus me, infinity
You plus me
