Sat on stones along the tracks
A field of weeds behind our backs
You hummed a tune you never named
I never asked, I liked the game
The sun had dipped, the grass was gold
You said some stories can't be told
If I forget the sound you made
Let wind and time both have their way
You never stayed, but still I wait
By old routines and crossing gates
You smiled
and I let it fade
You drew a line upon the dirt
Said leaving doesn't always hurt
The trains went by, we didn't move
The silence said what words can't prove The sun had dipped,
the grass was gold
You said some stories can't be told If I forget the sound you made
Let wind and time both have their way
You never stayed, but still I wait
By old routines and crossing gates
There's nothing new beneath the trees
But still I sit and still I freeze
Your shadow crossed this place before
And left its shape beside the door
