[00:05.20]She smiled in a big way,
[00:08.52]the way a girl like that smiles
[00:11.91]when the world is hers.
[00:14.65]And she held your eyes
[00:18.56]out in the breeze way
[00:21.91]down by the shore in the lazy summer.
[00:31.80]And she pulled you in and she bit your lip
[00:38.51]and she made you hers.
[00:45.54]She looked deep into you as you laid together,
[00:49.64]quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer.
[00:58.23]But you ve already lost
[01:04.70]But you ve already lost
[01:11.36]But you ve already lost
[01:17.63]when you only have barely enough to hang on.
[01:38.63]And she combed your hair and she kissed your teeth
[01:45.24]And she made you better than you ve been before.
[01:51.93]And she told you bad things
[01:55.31]you wished you could change in the lazy summer.
[02:05.28]And she told you laughing down to her core
[02:11.09]So she would not cry as she lay in your lap
[02:18.06]And she said, "Nobody here can live forever,"
[02:23.07]quiet in the grasp of dusk and summer.
[02:31.58]But you ve already lost,
[02:38.34]but you ve already lost
[02:44.65]But you ve already lost
[02:50.99]when you only have barely enough to hang on.
[03:12.36]And she said, "No one is alone the way you are alone."
[03:18.89]And you held her looser than you would have
[03:22.98]if you ever could have known.
[03:26.33]Some things tie a life together,
[03:29.67]you slendered threads and things to treasure.
[03:33.05]Days like that should last and last and last.
[03:39.11]But you ve already lost,
[03:44.62]but you ve already lost
[03:51.33]But you ve already lost
[03:57.84]when you only have barely enough of her to hang on.
[04:11.96]Hang on. hang on. hang on.
