CarolinaI’ve been looking for the time to tell youNothing feels the sameSince I moved back from where you areWords don’t line upAnd every time I try to lay them downThe god forsaken page rips out and tears up into partsI’m tearing into partsSo HallelujahReads the church signOn the side walkNow I pass along the five blocksTo the amber colored doorWhat’s it to yaIf I still believe in magicSee the beauty in our tragicAnd want to feel like there’s something moreSince I told you that I love youAnd you said that isn’t trueCus you treat love like a fireworkJust to keep the sky amusedAnd you might find that given timeThe fire burns right down the fuseAnd you still stand too closeCaliforniaCan leave the money on the tableAnd the silver in the halos of the angels in her skyI adore youSo I’m getting on this train homeAnd I’m letting all these stars goI’m sleeping through the nightSince I told you that I love youAnd you said it might be trueBut you treat love like a fireworkJust to keep the sky amusedAnd you might find that over timeAnd once the fire burns the fuseYou still stand too closeIf I said again I love youWould you say you know it’s trueWe can treat love like a fireworkJust to keep the sky amusedAnd we might find that given timeThe fire burns right down the fuseBut I’m still standing close
