lyrics

It was summer but it felt like spring
Reminiscing isn’t really my thing
Threw some names up on my screen
Should’ve known what news that brings

Only checked in now and again
One comes, one passes away
Lord knows it’s a cruel trick to play

Stood up and started pacing the room
Who cares what good that’ll do
Lot of ghosts follow me around
But I can’t claim this one too

Only checked in now and again
One comes, one passes away
Lord knows it’s a cruel trick to play

Call it cyclical, call it blind
When it leaves a life behind
Call it cynical, you opportunist
But I took my pen and I sat and I wrote this down

Only checked in now and again
One comes, one passes away
Lord knows it’s a cruel trick to play
Lord knows it’s a cruel trick to play
