Dime Novels
Dime Novels (Solstice Melody)
Gazing at me wide-eyed like a child
I would sing my songs to her
To her
She must have heard them all
A hundred times or more
Or more
How long
Long ago
It seems
It seems
Lovers come and gone my hand to catch her tears
They fell like summer's rain
Like rain
Seasons change she's come again
To speak of when she slept only to dream
To dream
How long
Long ago
It seems
It seems
Our lives they read like novels
That we bought for dimes
And hid hoping they wouldn't find them
