Bloom

(Verse 1)
I remember, I was just a little cold
So you laughed at me and handed me your coat
I remember how we hoped and prayed for snow
And I felt like this would never let us go
Soon Spring showed up knocking at our door
And I started wondering what was next in store
You seemed nervous, I wondered what for

(Chorus 1)
But it’s April and we’re not speaking
And the blossoms on the trees keep reminding
We might have been something if we took that chance
But it’s April and our chance to bloom is past
It’s Spring and we’re not keeping
The promises we used to believe in
The green just makes me think of you
But it’s April and we missed our chance to bloom

(Verse 2)
I remember you were just a little cold
As the rain beat down on our window
And when I tried to pull away
You held me close, told me to stay
Snow fell soon enough
And we ran and laughed and fell and loved
But California sun wasn’t made for us
It couldn’t last, you couldn’t trust

(Chorus 2)
It’s April and we’re not speaking
And the blossoms on the trees keep reminding
We might have been something if we took that chance
But it’s April and our chance to bloom is past
It’s Spring and we’re not keeping
The promises we used to believe in
The green just makes me think of you
But it’s April and we missed our chance to bloom

(Bridge)
I’m watching flowers pop up out of nowhere
It could have been us, chances to bloom are rare
We always said that nothing would pull us too far
So why is this so hard
So if you find the ground is right
Maybe some other season, it’ll finally be our time
If you ever find yourself looking again
You know I’ll meet you by our flower bed

(Chorus 3)
But it’s April and we’re not speaking
And the blossoms on the trees keep reminding
We might have been something if we took that chance
But it’s April and our chance to bloom is past
It’s Spring and we’re not keeping
The promises we used to believe in
The green just makes me think of you
But it’s April and we missed our chance to bloom

(Chorus 4)
It’s May and it’s all so bright
But I don’t care, without you by my side
We could have been in love, we could have made it last
But our chance to bloom is past
It’s June and calm, and wind still blows
July is gone, September goes
Soon it’s snowing, wind is blowing
I don’t know where I am going
But maybe this time I’ll find you
Maybe we’ll find another chance to bloom
