The Crabapple Tree

I remember that sweet humid night

The air was dank
and smelled like there was a beach nearby
You and I enjoyed summer evenings like this

Teenyboppers

You had on those damn
A. Hardaway's
And I had on my favorite pair of Bongo jeans

We sat under the Crabapple Tree
And talked about our ambitions
Our futures
Life

We sang our favorite songs
like Subway's "Hide and Seek"
All out of tune
Spent the night laughing
Then we kissed
right before the street lights came on

I raced home
But I hated leaving you
I wanted that night
to last forever

When they told me what happened
It rocked my world
I haven't looked at life the same since
I will forever think back to that perfect summers night

Always thought it'd be you I'd share my deams with.
