Go Ahead - The Rosebuds

Go ahead and be my world

And everything will be okay

Just hide there in plain sight

Too big to see, yeah to see

We’ll have coffee and watch the strangers

Gather our letters and carry us further

Diluted and faded, still safely there

Still there, still there

Go ahead, let’s plant a forest

Where we can hide when the city expels us

We can sleep in the branches

Our own little outpost in the trees

We’ll plan ahead and cut a path

So we can always sneak our way back

And line it all with grapevines and keep them well tuned

So we can run, we can run through

Let’s go ahead and grab our clothes

And walk together where the water knows us

And toss them over the edge

Into the lake and watch them sink

Let’s make a pact, set a date

Meet back up here at this same place

And maybe brim will make beds in your dresses

In your dresses, in your dresses

Go ahead and leave two notes

And place them down inside old library books

And fold back the pages

Put them back in their spaces, undisturbed

And we’ll come back and see inside

Who checked them out and if they replied

Or if they’re still there unread and unanswered

Quiet, unread and unanswered
