Margot Says

lyrics

Margot said
do you remember when we stood in line
you came to tell me that you would be mine, the school bell cut you off
I confess
from that day on I was just so obsessed
with every detail in your skin undressed, a studied afterthought
Then we would lie in bed as we mouth the words into the air
while leaving out the letters for a dare

Far away
in New York you were living in your dream
becoming someone who you once have deemed fantastical and cruel
Silver scarf
A box of chocolate and a copy of the Little Prince
and snow white winter gloves, delivered to your door
You wore it to the dance that night and forgot it at the hall
The morning came you cried into the phone

When you called
to say your corner of the globe was still round,
you wouldn't know to find someone who's found all the reasons to be sad
From your love once upon a time, burnt through candles I pretend
I'm writing all the letters once again

Margot said
I don't know how to look you in the eye
and tell you that the time of no reply has come and gone away
But there's a failing inside every beginning to an end
I'm sorry for the summers that we spend
