I found a picture of our house
When we used to live on Haddon street
I remember what it meant to me
To call it home
And I can see my face
Looking out the window
Wondering where’d you go
Can’t wait to come home
And time passes by
I never really thought or wondered why
The raindrops dry
Stars go dancing in the night
I found a locket in our house
In my childhood bedroom
I kept it in a jewelry box
That played Mozart
And I could see my face
Staring right back at me
Through the cracks and the broken glass
Of better times
And time passes by
I never really thought or wondered why
The bluejay flies
When she goes soaring in the night
And time passes by
I never really thought or wondered why
Holy Mary cries
If you look directly in her eyes
Do you think it’s right?
That I don’t come around anymore
If it cuts so deep
Are some things worth fighting for

You spent your summers at my house because your parents were fighting
Poppin wheelies, chalk the sidewalk, cause it didn’t mean a thing
Oh Christopher you were only a few years older than me,
I left you in the darkness and didn’t returned your phone calls
Were you by yourself when you didn’t wake up that day
You burned the light bulbs one by one at least that’s what they’re saying
Between you and me, I know the truth, we need something to believe in
We didn’t think the virus would eat you up inside
You spent your life hiding away from those things
And it’s a sad state of affairs
But I don’t want you thinking I didn’t care
Oh Christopher you were only a few years older than me
And we left you in the darkness and didn’t returned your phone calls
And it’s a sad state of affairs
But I don’t want you thinking I didn’t care
