The Caulfields - The Day That Came and Went lyrics

I don't remember much about you I was barely seven when Mom came home without you But I knew right then Life was changing fast I don't know why I remember these things Your pipe tobacco and the pinch of a bee sting Entwined together in a memory long pa**ed CHORUS As the years go by I remember the moments The sound of your voice Your particular sent Sometimes I eulogize I mythologize Secnes cut from a day that came and went Whenever dusk falls in April or May I feel like I'm back in the yard where I played And it feels like the day I knew you'd gone away They never let me say goodbye to you They thought I was too young and wouldn't know what to do But I'm telling you right now That was their mistake Why did you leave me Why did you go right then Did you know somehow that I'd never be what I am If you were here to guide my hand To this day
