well I wrote your name and burned it,
F C
to see the color of the flame,
Gm A#
and it burned out the whole spectrum,
F Dm
as if you were everything,
Gm A#
mine just burned gold, a normal flame,
F Dm F A# F C
I am, not anything, and all that I remember is the feeling of waking up,
Gm A# F Dm
when we were kids, you were the sun to which my eyes would not adjust,
Gm A# F
when we were kids, i was a fountain, you could never drink enough,
F A# F C
then came all the boys who swept you up, playing careless with your heart
Gm A# F Dm
and every night there was a new girl, sitting beside me in my car,
Gm A# F A#
something dies when you grow older, but you do the best you can,
Gm A# F
I am glad, I am glad, you found a good man
