lyrics

I remember when we used to go
and stand out in the rain
You always felt so alive,
but I didn't feel the same
I take time to think on that now
All the ways you've let me down
Those four years of endless nights,
I watched you cry yourself to sleep
I'll bet you didn't know that I did too
Did you ever really see?
You always said you'd run with me
until the day I had to leave
Back when I chose to go,
like a monarch to Mexico
So long it's been since that time,
trying to find my way
Through the timbers and hollyhocks
Keeping count of my days
Sometimes I might lose track,
but I know I'll never get them back
So when the wild roses make me think of you,
I don't have any thought to spare
I'm just thankful for the things I've learned
from the bittersweets we share
And sometimes you still cross my mind,
but it's not worth going back in time
And I think now that I should go,
like a monarch to Mexico
I'm sure I'll find soon where I belong,
where I'll grow my own garden
And I'll wonder if you ever think of me
in all your brokenness
Maybe we all have to find our own,
like a monarch to Mexico
