lyrics

When we both knew the words to To Kill a Mockingbird
We read in year ten, and that was when
I heard that you made the chorus in the play
As Anna would say, you fought tooth and nail

the strange thing that we heard was just some aquatic bird
that flies in and out in the evenings up here
the night that you sang, you held Aladdin’s hand
and I looked down and pressed my fingernail

There’s things I regret now
I could have told you after the song
There’s things I remember, and I don’t why
As soon as its quiet, they all come mind
