Should've Dressed for the Event
You’re the ghost
Of the younger you
As you float
Down the stairway
Catch your eye
You crack a smile
We sit and pine
For a while
Down the drain
Pour the coffee that
We didn’t drink
Too cold
Hear the girl
In the stereo
Singing tunes
From long ago
Don’t lie to me my friend
Are we really at the end?
Should’ve dressed for the event
But I know we’ll meet again
I’ll wear something black and red
You’ll apply my favorite scent
And if still we both forget
Then I’ve loved you till the end
I'm the wraith
Of the younger me
As I joke
To see you laughing
Hear the boy
On the radio
As your gaze
Meets the door
Don’t lie to me my friend
Are the waves upon the sand?
They may rip you from my hand
But I know we’ll meet again
And I’ll wear my darkest cape
You’ll put on your finest lace
And if still we should forget
Then I’ve loved you till the end
