I once thought that spring meant growing
Where the winters were stark
And the summers hot
I once felt like blooming made up
For a lack of growth
In all of the things I'm not
[Chorus]
I set a trap under a tree
To catch the good in me that wants to leave
Let the worst in
Take the best out
Like a cocoon
It's true (it's true)
That I missed you
It's true (it's true)
That I missed you
[Verse 2]
I felt that I was not built to fold
So I sit and I watched as my father gets old
And his hair turns grey
More and more each day
I'm seeing graves in the ways that I'm losing friends
And I don't want to make believe
Or to pretend that's how it goes
So I'm told
Could you crease and fold
[Chorus]
I set a trap under a tree
To catch the good in me that wants to leave
Let the worst in
Take the best out
Like a cocoon
When the worst is in
Take the best things out
Because you know
It's true (it's true)
That I missed you
It's true (it's true)
That I missed you
That I missed you
Yeah, I missed you
[Verse 1] I once thought that spring meant growing Where the winters were stark And the summers hot I once felt like blooming made up For a lack of growth In all of the things I'm not [Chorus] I set a trap under a tree To catch the good in me that wants to leave Let the worst in Take the best out Like a cocoon It's true (it's true) That I missed you It's true (it's true) That I missed you [Verse 2] I felt that I was not built to fold So I sit and I watched as my father gets old And his hair turns grey More and more each day I'm seeing graves in the ways that I'm losing friends And I don't want to make believe Or to pretend that's how it goes So I'm told Could you crease and fold [Chorus] I set a trap under a tree To catch the good in me that wants to leave Let the worst in Take the best out Like a cocoon When the worst is in Take the best things out Because you know It's true (it's true) That I missed you It's true (it's true) That I missed you That I missed you Yeah, I missed you Explain Request ×
