We saw girl scouts slinging sweets
You took the market-frankford line
Back to 30th street to meet me there

We rode our bikes through the city all night
In the first days of january
The air was cold in philly when you spilled your heart on me

We drank until the weight shed from our skin
Then you left for the army and I never saw you again

'Til I broke down at your funeral
I was inconsolable
There was nothing I could do
But I still wish I could've saved you

Oh oh oh oh

You were enough to bring us back
We never can show you that
There will always be space for you here
We can never fill the place you left when you disappeared

Why can't we undo anything?
Why can't we fix ourselves?
Is there any way out?
Why is there so much wrong with us?
