i stepped out into the night and put my feet down on the wet patio floor
the sky´s air had been cooling and steam rose from everywhere
i could feel drops of rain slipping off tree´s leaves and splattering to the ground
it´s always misty after a summer pour
and i´ll remember turning around and looking out
and staring in and focusing on this one beautiful girl
and i said, "oh who is this?
where was she all those crazy years?
where was she when my heart couldn´t take its beat?"
i sipped down some warm ginger ale
and drew back a breath
and headed over to see about this girl
i couldn´t say a thing and i just stared open and wide
and i connected with her eyes to feel my gut fall through the floor
oh my god, i think i´m falling.
