Movin On

 

And now you're gone, now you're gone
As if there ever was a you
Who held me dying, pulled me through
Who's moving on
who's kidding who

Who's moving on?
Who's kidding who?

    Leonard Cohen

Better Days

 I may never understand the full measure of a man

But this is what I'd tell him if he was here
Sometimes it feels like you're caught in a riptide
Pulling you out to a watery grave
Sometimes it feels like you've seen enough
It's all too much
You feel like giving up
Sometimes it feels like I'm stretched too thin
How does anyone win in this race that we're in
Sometimes the going gets pretty rough
But I'm hangin' tough
I'm not giving up on better days

I'm not giving up

"Better Days" -Noah Gunderson

Twenty-Five

 There was a time when I imagined us forever

I can't quite remember how I thought we'd work it out
I guess I would move to California or you to Boston
And I'd learn to like to stay at home or you'd learn to like going out

 
And although the stories that I tell myself about us now
Don't take me to the grave
I'll be an old woman with somebody else by my side
But I will always be in love with you in my memories
When we were twenty-five

 
I always think of you whеn I drink affogatos
'Cause that summer, we would havе them every afternoon
The hot and cold was such a perfect combination
Melt all together, bittersweet and creamy, and always gone to soon

 
But all the joy we had and love we gave away back then
Well, it never went to waste
'Cause I'll be an old woman with somebody else by my side
But I will always be in love with how you loved me
When we were twenty-five
