Well, I had to match your peacock print dress on prom day
My vest was tan to accentuate your more delicate shades
Everyone was looking at you, you were something to see
Don't know why I thought you might find some feelings for me
You're still the one for me
It's no secret, I can't see
Beyond these fantasies of you
Holding my cold body
I still remember when you hugged me dressed as a mermaid
Our last night we went outside to keep the future at bay
Everyone was looking at you, you walked over to me
You buried your head in my shoulder, I stood as stiff as a tree
There was no one prettier than you, you were bright as could be
Without a word, you said goodbye; the rest is history
Your skin so pale
From plumes to scales
You lit up the night
And I went blind
