I started the car to make a trip I held out for the afternoon I called you late but my head was out of the radio I went to Hawaii on a trip And didn't come down 'till I got home Graduated Saturday and left the real world I drove out east in my white car Played at a church with our band I got drunk and wandered off With my friend's latest girl A few years make a difference A few years make a difference A few years make a difference A few years make a difference You got in the car for waterfalls I fell asleep behind the wheel I never cry for my best friends save august 28th I missed your birthday on a 5th I held your hand it was for a joke I stood close for body warmth Against frozen Kimi's feet Moved in to a smaller room I settled in the Listerine I walked inside of second south and stayed in for a year I mention the future as if I knew I went out to school because I could I never wanted anyone Unless they were someone else Maggie and I blazed a trail Walked on rocks on the streams Started the summer on a dock The water was cold and green I called her now but we're no good The conversation is without gains And I am not her future lover I'd always known I was A few years make a difference A few years make a difference My sisters boyfriends old blue van Snowflakes on the clouded gla** Christmas lights and Jesus Christ And visits from the dead Seeping in on Saturday This old computers constant ring Golf with Edward weekday nights He died when I was ten Flannel t-shirts, house on stilts Spaceships on the brand new couch Mom and Dad I love you now more than I ever have before The house was made a living space But the sand was a battle ground I found toy cars buried in the dirt behind the porch A few years make a difference A few years make a difference A few years make a difference A few years make a difference Got a castle from Diane and Norm Paper airplane club at three Kissed a girl but didn't mean to kiss anyone else I hung my own neck on a swing When I was three I cried real hard A coffee can I might have died every day since then I gave god up to rationale I met him knocking on my door I'll die and tell him I don't know you You never called me back I closed my eyes and saw that I was never old or young or smart I was everyone I'd ever met who I never loved enough
