There's a playground that we used to run on 
The penny-drop that broke her arm 
The monkey bars that you fell from 
The swingset chain that stuck with my tongue 
It's thirty below and we're far gone 
If you plant yourself here I wouldn't miss you for long 
But then comes the day when you leave town 
I'm back to the way I was when you weren't around 

If you want to know what that was like 
I'll tell you first, it was way too quiet 
It rained a hundred nineteen days of the year 
I spent my time falling down the stairs 
I know I can't tie you to a leash 
But something tells me you'd go further than Greece 
And then I'll have to figure out what to do 
I'm kind of afraid I'm co-dependent on you 

I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down 
Before momentum picked up 
Now all these doors are locked 
The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still 
If time was really racing by 
You could see it when you drive 

There's a rooftop deck where we still hang out 
A couple of bars where we're not allowed 
The roller-skates that threw you on your face 
The park on the hill which was our only space 
The fog is fast and it rolls right in 
About the time I struck my first fifth of gin 
I really don't mean to complain too much 
But this is turning me into quite the lush 

I'm freaking out that we're running out of time 
But to do what? 
Should I stop and think of that? 
Is there something I could do to slow it down? 
Live in a day for once 
Instead of watch it screaming by 

You're a dandelion seed 
That flies through the air 
And lands randomly 
Then disappears 
x2 

I'm freaking out that we've started breaking down 
Before momentum picked up 
Now all these doors are locked 
The trees trick you 'cause they're always standing still 
If time was really racing by 
You could see it when you drive
