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