Rescue

[Verse 1]
All the things that you said
Still fill my head like a dream
And the games that we played
When we were just seventeen
Oh the years they dissolve
Like blood in the palm of your hand
And time's cruelest reward
Is letting old memories stand

[Chorus]
Do you remember the flood, I tried to reach for you
But girl, you were drowning then in your own sweet tears
What was I supposed to do
When there was nothing left to rеscue

[Verse 2]
I passed by your old house
Walkеd along your old street
But on the corner where I once held you
Different faces now meet
And though innocence lives
In daydreams and lost afternoons
All and more I would give
Just to sit one last time in your room

[Chorus]
Do you remember the storm, I tried to cover you
But girl, you were running from every drop of rain
What was I supposed to do
When there was nothing left to rescue

[Verse 3]
So the night's drawing near
And I have to trail home
Beneath the sky, ringing clear
Punctuated by stars big as stones
And the truth, once so vague
Appears like a vision to me
Though it seemed hard to stay
It was always much harder to leave
