We had this bright idea one late summer night
Candy-coated popcorn strung like a beaded
Curtain hung over your door
I guess the heat got to it
Dripped and melted all over the floor
Chocolate-covered cherries in tin foil boats
Float around the floorboard
I had to laugh not to cry
Now all your possessions, all of your things
All of your hopes, schemes, desires, and
Most of all, your dreams
All gone awaygone away
All gone awaygone away all gone away
"live for today", you said, "live for today"
I had to laugh not to cry
I had to laugh not to cry, not to cry
