Lyrics Josh Woodward - Cherubs

Running in the sand
Living on the land
The salty breeze was in our eyes
We stood beneath the dragonflies and danced all night

We polished all the chrome
On our rusty little home
We slept all night in parking lots
We tied our hearts in double knots, so tight
So free, so right

Remember when
We were just cherubs in our tender skin
Waiting patiently for life to begin

Flowing so free
Blowing in the breeze
The songs we sung so long ago
With whiskey and an afterglow, we sang so loud

But there along the way
Something seemed to change
As weeks turned into months we knew
As life caught up we slowly grew, apart
And untied our hearts

The summer went away and the skies went gray
We slowly ran out of things to say
The river turned into drought
Our time was fading out

Defeated and alone, we returned back home
Like a bird without a wing who had never flown
Surrendered to, suspended dreams

Remember when
You walked away in the December wind
I felt the stinging on my pale skin
I knew that things would never be the same again

Remember when
The clouds rolled in and then the sunlight dimmed
And what will be, it killed what might have been
