free irises Lyrics

Daylight was closing in and we were walking down the block it was the evening it all began

We turned right and then we started talking like we've known each other since we were like 10

And with a grin you turned to me as if to say, "I've always known you; you've always been my friend"

New house, old garden. Empty apartment, fresh start and

a heavy feeling that I'm bout to leave before we started

But we walked the feeling off, stumbled on someone's lawn

They moved on but left behind, flowers that could bloom or die

To remind us you don't always have to grow where you're planted

Goodbyes don't always have to be how we planned it

Cuz our bond doesn't recognize state lines

We get high and we stay up late

We fight and we take our space but

We all come back around in our own time

We fall and sometimes crash

I jump and you are right behind, you are right behind

Even though we just don't know, where we've been or where we'll go

We know this, we know this

Free irises

Snow falls at our feet, and I don't wanna leave but I know it won't change a thing

It feels good, good to miss you. Feel you in every part of me, anywhere I lead (lead)

Cuz our bond doesn't recognize state lines

We get high and we stay up late

We fight and we take our space

I can't believe there was a day

When I didn't know your name

Sometimes the road is lonely

But where we've been is never where we end up going

Cuz we know this, we know this

Free irises

Free irises

Free irises

But at least I got

Free irises in July

Warm streets under summer skies

Dirt under my fingernails

And laughing fits under the stairs

Friends who feel like home

All the things I'd never known

No more wishing I'd just get there

No more numbing cuz I was scared

No unseen fears or ignored cares

Just you and me (you and me)

Just you and me & free irises

(Summer, summer skies

Oh July, never know, never know- oh

We know this, we know this)
