Don't you remember that snowy December When we went to see "Singing in the Rain"? I shouldn't have smuggled in that bottle of gin Because after the film, I could barely walk But, darling don't you know it's only human To want to k** a beautiful thing When I was seven summer lasted forever I used to chase fire flies through the woods Tiny green lights circling warm August nights
I'd catch them inside a washed-out old jar I dreamed of the stars with the jar by my bed But each morning my pretty bugs were dead We should have been dancing like lovers in a movie But I fell and cut my head in the snow I wanted to tell you all the ways that I loved you But instead I got sick on the train.
