lyrics

The One That Might-a-Never-Was Noah Kleiman April 2011

And if some summer morning , love you take a walk out-side
and happen to look upward past the buildings to the sky

let your vision rest a moment, on that distant summit , or a cloud
as you mind collects the memory of, the one that might-a never-was
and the words you wish you’d spoken out loud

but dwell upon him gently as you continue on your way
let the path behind illuminate, the road ahead today

put your heart back in your bra strap, at the clavicles cascade
where you keep the rules you follow, and the rules you sometimes break

So that on a future morning, love, as you step out side your door
and your mem’ry draws your footsteps towards a place from yester-fore.

those thoughts won’t cloud your vision, should a special stranger, cross your path
and your heart will find exceptions to, the things you-musn’t-ever do
especially when it comes to charming chaps.

So dwell upon it gentely, and continue on your way.
let the path behind illuminate the road ahead today

with your heart packed in your bra strap, bundled tightly to your breast
where you’ll always keep the memory of, the one that might-a-never-was,
and the things you know were probably for the best.
