Goodbye, to This, and That, and You, and My Baseball Glove (album version)

Lyrics

The sea's been swelling The sky's been overcast I see a few rocks have been spit out on the shore It's been a long few years for us all Let's just try to move on It's been about ten years since We lived on the same street I braced myself for insults but all you said was just You left your bag by the front door The last words I said were "Nice try, maybe next time" You just shook your head And I think what you meant was I really won't miss you at all So you clogged the toilet And I'll try my best To push down the part of myself that Wants to say, "So you did it again?" So grab the plunger, wе'll do it together Hold on I'm trying So you can't see it? You're just projеcting your memories of me But I don't even care at all… I swear I'm gonna change I can't sleep because it started to rain and It's been so long that I'd like to hear every drop Did you notice how green the leaves look on other days like this? And I found Old glasses Old drawings In old notebooks I don't know What I proved then… I dreamed I saw you and you actually smiled It was a day just like this when my brother left us I offered him an umbrella but he declined it He didn't tell our parents before he left And I always wonder, why didn't he take it? Until then I never Thought much about the past and I'm not so Good at poems but I hope one day I feel like how those mountains look So we went jogging It's raining this time and We both laughed when you said "I hate myself too." I guess that's one thing we share But do you remember? When we were kids I ran and got you a bandaid when you fell and scraped your knee I hope that's who I really am Hold on I'm trying God can't you see me? No, I know that's not what's really important I know I can't expect anyone to stay Some things you can't get back
