Tripping On You

I know it's been too long for you to remember,
but it broke my heart when you had to end her.
I know if I could, I'd turn back time,
use an eraser to erase her
but I think I'd lose my mind.

I've taken some time to think about last--last November.
T’was the season of fall leaves and sweater weather.
You put your mark on her,
It was like a wax seal.
I can make it and paint it in watercolor.
But I'd rather make a deal.

I've tried to do what's right
and let things glide on by.
But it's bothering me,
but no one can see
me slipping, slipping on through.
It's taking its toll on me,
I just want to leave.
Oh, this anxiety,
please let me be with you.
I'm tripping, tripping on you.

Acorns scattered round like notes in a bottle.
Please let us fall into together this autumn.
Let us fall in love together, me and you--
‘cause--
