ForgetmeKnots

To all those who I wish had not died inside

She wore the color of forget-me-nots at the
funeral
Yellow pants, green converse, dark baby blue
She whispered to the air something sweet and tuneful
But nobody knew you were alive in the pew
and she was talking to you

Ah, ah, ah, forgetmeknots
I've tied you up
Don't pretend you forgot
Tried to say you were dead
But the things that you said
Showed me you were not

You tried to ignore her song in your head
But in the parking lot she caught up with you
She didn't say a word but her eyes instead
Echoed all the hopes she still held for you
And you saw all these things too
But she was a angel why'd she talk to you?
You just laughed "forget me knots"
But when you looked up from the blacktop she was gone
