As the Crow Flies

A rose right in the middle of a million dandelions
The sun gives you a spotlight from above
I wonder how we got here, how I'd love to hear the story
How we made this place our own and called it love

The breeze blows through the branches, over ripples in the water
As the pond reflects the boundless bright blue sky
The birds all sing along as we hum our little songs
And I run away from telling you goodbye

(oooh)

Meet me in the middle, at the place where it all started
Where I held your head so tightly to my chest
How bittersweet and strange to be in love and brokenhearted
I never did go back after you left

A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I'm with you
Yeah, I'm a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you?
We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you
More and more with every day that passes by

Now I'm laughing, and I'm smiling, and I'm screaming, and I'm crying
It's a double-sided sword that I cannot tell you I'm dying
All that's left for me to do is just keep singing, acting, dancing
No more earthly wants or wishes, without you I'm done romancing
Nevermore, now life's a bore

Meet me in the middle, at the place where it all started
Where I held your head so tightly to my chest
How bittersweet and strange to be in love and brokenhearted
I never did go back after you left

A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I'm with you
Yeah, I'm a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you?
We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you
More and more with every day that passes by

A hundred fifty miles as the crow flies, then I'm with you
Yeah, I'm a little drunk, but is it okay if I kiss you?
We promised not to say a word, but darling how I miss you
More and more with every day that passes by

(Now I'm laughing, and I'm smiling, and I'm screaming, and I'm crying

Nevermore
