Holding my hands above my head,
running through the lawn.
Shimmer summer,
golden hair,
I was five years old.
Putting all my precious things underneath my shirt,
trying to collect the pretty rocks,
put them in my can.
Being caught in the haze of a southern sky,
being totally amazed by a dragonfly.
So I followed it on down to the riverside,
where I heard it hit the ground and I watched it die.
And I didn’t think that I would ever be the same,
but the morning after was time enough.
I couldn’t meet her gaze as she said that I,
can’t stay in just one place,
I keep flying by.
And I heard myself say,
as she said goodbye,
you’ll come crashing down to earth
like the dragonfly.
And I didn’t think that I would ever be the same,
but the morning after was time enough.
