i watched the smoke, as it grew darker and blew up through the roof

i watched the fed, saw them panic, as the fire grew

i saw virginia, get rid of langley, and its secrets too

i held your hand, and sat there knowing, that we'd make it through



i saw this man dispose of hunger and soap operas too

i saw this field, that grew perfection full of things you do

i saw this box, get rid of heartache and cure cancer too

when i awoke i sat there hoping, this is what we'll do



if we can, we will leave a letter and this song for you

and we'll write once a day and put it through the sea to you

we'll regret all those things we thought of but didn't ever do



if we can we will leave a letter and this song for you

and we'll write once a day and put it through the sea to you

we'll regret all those things we thought of but didn't ever do

when the sky seems to clear who will then be left, but a few, me and you
