I never meant to reminisce.nThe snow is deep, the blood runs thicknand all the hours of reckoningnbring me to the end of spring.nnI could have jumped, I could have flownnThe porch was high, the rain was gone.nAnd there you were, to pour the winenon a blanket in my mind.nnDon't tell on me.nDon't tell on me.nnWe took the car, we stole the keys,nopened windows, felt the breeze.nOur town was small, the air was thick.nI never meant to reminisce.nnWe came back late, roamed the halls,nslept between the darkroom walls.nThe years were kind, and I could flynbut I don't have the strength to try.nnDon't tell on me.nDon't tell on me.nnThose I have lost and left behindnjoin the thousands in my mind.nThe snow is gone, the air is thick,nup ahead she waits and sits onnna solid stone, the rain is close.nThe stars are out to watch and host.nI touch her hand, I touch her face.nWhat are we without this place?nnDon't let me trynto push you aside.nWe've all got our secrets, our creeds.nDon't tell on me.
