Shannon,
Though your seven thousand miles away,
And I don’t have very much to say,
I still think about you every day,
And I wonder if you’d like to play.
Shannon,
I’ll be the king and you can be the queen.
Choose the place and we can make a scene.
We can fall into our same routine.
Fact or fiction, somewhere in between.
If I could hold you with just my words,
I’d say it over and over till you heard,
The words I wanna say I just can’t find,
But if I found them you would lose your mind.
Shannon,
Hope you’re not as sad as yesterday,
When you’re parents when their separate ways,
And I know that it may sound cliché,
But I promise that you’ll be okay.
Shannon,
I’ll be you and you pretend you’re me.
We can share each other’s sympathy,
Cause we both know that we’re so lonely.
If I could hold you with just my words,
I’d say it over and over till you heard,
The words I wanna say I just can’t find,
But if I found them you would lose your mind.
