Hummingbirds

Let's take a boat on the lake in September Feel that Midwest autumn breeze Talk about shared days we remember Spot a deer grazing near the trees I lay my head gently on your shoulder You rest a hand on my knee We share a drink and I think when we're older This is right where I want to be From the stories painted in my dreams I picture what could be Threads that hold such vibrant colors Woven in tranquil scenes Hummingbirds and willow trees Campsites and quiet streams They remind me of my lover The one that could never be Mountain tops and fallen leaves Long hikes and honeybees You found hope in another Wish that other could've been me Let's light a fire on a cold night of winter Sip cider beneath the stars and speak 'Bout your brother and my soft-spoken sister All our childhood memories Watch the smoke soar over the cinders You lean over closer to me We sit there in peaceful silence When I'm with you I feel so free From the stories painted in my dreams I picture what could be Threads that hold such vibrant colors Woven in tranquil scenes Hummingbirds and willow trees Campsites and quiet streams They remind me of my lover The one that could never be Mountain tops and fallen leaves Long hikes and honeybees You found hope in another Wish that other could've been me Could've been me Could've been me Could've been me Could've been me Could've been me Could've been me
