You ask if I've forgotten your name        I smile and accuse you of the same

A                  C#m
You ask if I've forgotten your name
  D                F#m
I smile and accuse you of the same
E
But I remember your hand in mine
D
Kicking over dandelions
A               C#m
I'm sure that's enough to place you
D                             F#m
Fifteen busy years could not erase you
E
Every single summer tried
D
But your memory never died
A                                C#m
Your freckles must've faded over time
    D                             F#m
Now, sitting sipping daiquri with lime
E
The very pretty picture of
D
A girl in bloom like a foxglove
C#m     B       A
I can't ask you now
             C#
Did you want more?

              D
Should I have followed you
                     A
When you closed that door
           E           F#m
Was it the message I ignored
Bm F#m      C#m      G    F#
I took your look for nevermore

A                           C#m
I fall upon my trademark restraint
  D                              F#m
I ask if you still photograph or paint
E
You invite me to your studio
D
I watch you mix your indigo
A                                      C#m
You brush aside the brown hair in your eyes
        D                           F#m
While I kick myself for every compromise
     E
Just sitting here, it feels like hell
D
So much worse because it's going well
C#m        B       A
I turn and ask you now
      C#
Can I stay?
