Things I Cannot Recall - Blind Pilot

In your old room

Where we caught you

Stepping through some old song

You said came from

Where your going

A lady read it in you palm

Down at the 12th Avenue market

Now promise you will not forget

You are going

'Til it’s gone

Screen went blue

Before I touched you

And my ride went home

All the photos came out lonely

But we’re not alone

Talking of everything we could not hold

I was stupid of thinking of east coast already

Now it’s gone

There are things I cannot forget

I wish none had happened yet

There are some things I cannot forget

We were stronger than the preachers

We were wiser than the law

We took off sleeping by the river

And the beaches in your car

Up where you taught me how to drive a stick

And told me your family secret

You were scared

I was caught

Why’d you stay behind

Packing for the trip?

Why’d you ask me to be the one

First through your lips?

I was awkward and I could not hear

Your body through my body’s fear

We were going to hell

There are things I cannot recall

There are some things that would risk it all

Now these are the things we cannot recall on

These are the things I cannot recall
