Lyrics:
If we change our minds
Can we change the leaves
Back to colors we remember
Cause I look for you
Do you look for me
In my little red suspenders

I call for you now in the forest around
When the whole world is falling apart
The truth almost found before the sun would go down
But Mom would say home before dark
Each night

In the overgrowth under the tallest trees
That’s where I always felt protected
With a branch in hand and you next to me
We were what we manifested

I call for you now in the forest around
When the whole world is falling apart
The truth almost found before the sun would go down
But Mom would say home before dark
Each night

I think of you now with the forest around
And the whole world is falling apart
I’m holding your hand and we’re jumping again
Like the summer when I broke my arm

Every night just you and I
A starry sky when we weren’t afraid of the dark
The stillness found in the dead of the night
And now I forgot where to start
Where should I start
