Washing Away

I haven't written you in a long time
But with rain down my window it makes me hard to pretend it's okay
You once were the summer on my fingertips, just like sand
Now you're washing away
Hear the thunder, smell the trees, you're here now
But none of this will every be quite the same
I miss your eyes, glowing, still laughing
Now you're washing away

I'm chasing dashboards and street lights
Rowhomes in the dark night
Curbside and a ring hanging by
I'm now just wishing on a soft glow
That I can just come home
And stop all of this rain
Now you're washing away in the rain

Do you remember the fires and tables?
My plea in a parking lot, "stay, baby, stay?"
Do you remember neon lights, up all night?
Now you're washing away

Now we're just washing away.
