about

These lyrics make me sad (still)

. . . But the story goes on !

lyrics

Young & Free was how it used to be
Until summer came along and changed it all around
But I miss the way your heart talked to me
Speaking . . . without any earthly sound
My gorgeous , foreign flower
How'd you get the power to leave my world and live inside my dreams ?

So tell me , tell me truly
Are you satisfied inside your new reality . . ?
Because here with you it was perfect - everything I wanted
Was it too good - too good to let go ?

Don't you know , sweet Petunia,
That the air that you breathe makes the air that I need ?
Don't you know , sweet Petunia,
That the thought of you leaving has got me wheezing still ?

So I need you to breathe . . .

Young & dumb was how I used to be
But without you , I know I'm lost completely
I feel like I'm a child living in the wild of a love
that grows and grows away from me . . .
