We got lost, We got found

You! were like a cassette as it plays,
The mixture of discovery,

Bringing me on the journey,
Roping me in, Tying me close,
When it warped and tangled,
It did us both.
We got unstuck,
We got unchewed,
and some days jammed in the heart of it,
When our songs came again,
Some got lost, Some got found
And slow the honey rolls from the spoon,
and our hidden tree glows to the moon,
In autumn breeze we wait and warm,
For the rushing twinkles of the sky,
Sleeping along side the flames,
The flames that keep us wild.
And dance with me,
And listen to leaves,

Bring your black patent shoes,
Push our days each way longer,
Forget our ghosts in our pockets,
Leave this trail and hide,
Tear and pull down our walls,
Lets bury them in the ground.
As we are found,
In each others coats 
When it warped and tangled,
It did us both.
We got unstuck,We got unchewed,
and some days jammed in the heart of it,
When our songs came again,
We got lost,
We got found.
