An Ode

[Verse 1]
I can feel my heartbeat drawn to the beat of another one
Standing in the doorway, tryna block the daylight before it comes
And you look so wonderful
Sleeping through the afternoon
As she's getting older, the promise of a future is all she wants
Spending all her time down by the water with a former love
Now all of those friends have grown up
No, you wouldn't recognize one
And that place that she knew, well it is no more

[Pre-Chorus]
There is something in the air this Friday night
A blanket draped over the sky

[Chorus]
Do you ever miss it?
The destruction of your innocence

[Verse 2]
Coasting through the airways, arms hanging low to water the roots
Living with some old hurt, I am just a poor boy you talk to
They don't care about you like I do, no, no one can tell me different
When it unraveled in front of you, you expected so much more

[Pre-Chorus]
He's on the clock workin' nine to five
Paid his bills on time, still he don't feel right

[Chorus]
And do you ever miss it?
The things you loved when you were a kid
And do you ever miss it?
Your parent's love that spread too thin
And we're getting close

[Post-Chorus]
There it goes, another one down
There's another one down
We're getting close
There it goes, another one down
There's another one down
And we're getting close

[Outro]
And do you ever miss it?
The chances you'll never get again
