Did you think of me that day?
When you drove down the driveway
I was a handful then, I know, with my shoes untied
I wouldn't watch the sunset
Without a coat and a helmet
I was a quivering maple leaf about to drop
But on the shore of the lake last fall
I don't know if you heard us all
But I found a crow in the sand
And I asked am I missing something
When you gave me that rock split in half
And I turned away from you and laughed
I meant I was sorry
Just so you know
I read the letter you wrote to me
When you moved back to Kentucky
Said the hills are so green
My God, you should see them
And now though it's early spring
It's still cold in the morning
And I keep my curtains mostly closed
