Through the Narrows to Eel Bay
Wellesley Island floats away
Summer lasts a thousand days
I wake up to her grinding teeth
Her sweaty hair stuck to her cheek
For a while I watch her sleep
You will you will always be her
I knew you then
Now I don’t know a thing
We had a deal
We had a deal
I put my money on a gap-toothed smile
The one I dream about
And wrestle with denial
We had a deal
You will you will always be her
I trace the wrinkles on her palms
She’s making words up to a song
I act annoyed but I’m in awe
The only things that stay the same
Are all the things you’d wished would change
Every time I hear her name
You will you will always be her
I knew you then
Now I don’t know a thing
We had a deal
We had a deal
We had a deal
We had a deal
I put my money on a gap-toothed smile
The one I dream about
And wrestle with denial
Maybe she knew it all along
You will you will always be her
She’s gone
You will you will always be her
