Catcher in the Rye

The last time you were present in my life
You handed me a copy of The Catcher in the Rye
And to this day it remains sat proudly on my shelf
Side by side with An American Prayer

I remember the festival of the virgin suicides
All up [?] awakening our minds
Did you ever make it to Stonehenge?
I hope your summer solstice never ends

Won't you stay? Don't just come and go
It's harder to say goodbye aftеr you're gone
Take my hand if you arе gone so
We're never getting back the time we lost
The time we lost

More lessons that you learn but will not teach
Impressions that you left on me and songs that you weren't in
How you long to join me up on stage
The saddest thing about you is a memory never made
And nothing feels the same

Won't you stay? Don't just come and go
It's harder to say goodbye after you're gone
Take my hand if you are gone so
We're never getting back the time we lost
The time we lost

Oh why, the Catcher in the Rye

Won't you stay? Don't just come and go
It's harder to say goodbye after you're gone
Take my hand if you are gone so
We're never getting back the time we lost
The time we lost
