to match my blue dress

I cut my hair short

that summer afternoon

so very clear

with a camera

taking photos of nothing

but your silly poses

on that summer afternoon

so very clear

but the seasons have turned

and a heart simply changes

I remember

those days

but somethings been lost today too

in the overflowing light

I loved you

on that summer day

I cut my hair too short

and so you kissed it

on that summer afternoon

so very clear

for a whole day like today

but the seasons have turned

and a heart simply changes

I remember

those days

but somethings been lost today too

in the overflowing light

I loved you

on that summer day

the two of us

to match my blue dress

you gave me flowers

that summer afternoon

so very clear

for a whole day like today
