MILO

(Andersen)

You don’t know me now at all
And I don’t know you from the writing on the wall
But after all this fall I see
It was never about ideals of social codes to be

Beneath your hardened heart and soul
There’s a child that I know
It was a long time ago
Pages and pages still the future’s more

Hey this is not forever
Hey this is not the reason for your life
There will be other summers
And you will be with your brothers
Hey this is not forever

Did you get the last line that I sent
Futile attempts at conversations, things I meant
One-way letters, it’s all rough
Do you ever wake up and the world is not enough?

Beneath your hardened heart and soul
There’s a child I still know
It was a long time ago
Pages and pages still the future’s more

Hey this is not forever
Hey this is not the reason for your life
There will be other summers
And you will be with your brothers
Hey this is not forever

You wait alone
Ten months to go
Where you’re going to
You’re coming from

You were the one her one
You were her pride and joy
But you were living large not to feel so small
And all you wanted was someone to care

Hey this is not forever
Hey this is not the reason for your life
There will be other summers
And you will be with your brothers
Hey this is not forever
