Cousin

Yours were the first eyes, I ever looked into
I can still see you standing panicked in the driveway
It was one of those moments
You save somebody drowning in

Deep in the summer, whiter in the winter
And we had hearts made of plate glass maybe even thinner
And I can still see your taillights fading down the alley
The day you went away, the day I went away

Hey, I've been looking for you all this time
Anything I can find of you to remind me of
How it used to be when the world was so young

Worlds are colliding, little souls dividing
And we had so little time left, the wicked witch reminded
And it was one of those moments when goodbye is forever
Well, I made you go away, I wanted to beg you to stay

Hey, I've been looking for you all this time
Anything I can find of you to remind me of
How it used to be when the world was so young

Well, I've been waiting for you to find me
Just one last look, Ill put it all behind me
And I dont care, you dont have to stay
I just want one last chance to feel that way
That way

Years come and go now
But hearts always remember and I still carry you with me
December through December and it is one of those memories
You hold onto forever and it never goes away, it never goes away

Hey, and Im still looking for you all this time
Anything I can find of you to remind me of
How it used to be when the world was so young

And I've been looking for you all this time
Anything I can find of you to remind me of
How it used to be when the world was so young, so young
