Easychair - Dragonfly Lyrics

Holding my hands above my head
Running through the lawn
Shimmer summer
Golden hair
I was five years old
Putting all my precious things underneath my shirt
Trying to collect the pretty rocks
Put them in my can

Being caught in the haze of a southern sky
Being totally amazed by a dragonfly
So I followed it on down to the riverside
Where I heard it hit the ground and I watched it die

And I didn't think that I would ever be the same
But the morning after was time enough

I couldn't meet her gaze as she said that I
Can't stay in just one place
I keep flying by
And I heard myself say
As she said goodbye
You'll come crashing down to earth
Like the dragonfly

And I didn't think that I would ever be the same
But the morning after was time enough
