about

this is a small project i made and produced over the span of two days for a song-writing class i was doing at the time. so it's not really much, but it's cute and i like it so i'm posting it here hehe.

lyrics

Smell of roses and December air
Walking up the red painted stairs
To give you a hug, but it's a little too tight
Opening presents on boxing day
Blow-up mattresses and suitcases
Cover the floor, but you're not fazed

And seven-year-old me
Is just so happy to see your face
Asking you every question
And telling jokes that make no sense
But you laugh anyway

And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of good times
Never fading, never fading away
And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of your light
Never fading, never fading away

The tiny backyard that looks over the school
Playing chase with tennis balls, and you lose
Every time to make me feel like a queen
Teddy bears and the old hardwood
Playing with the Lego set so I could
Build you a masterpiece to sit in your bedroom

And seventeen-year-old me
Is just so happy I saw you smile
But I wish I'd asked you more questions
Wish I'd asked you why all good things come to an end

And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of good times
Never fading, never fading away
And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of your light
Never fading, never fading away

I wish I'd asked you so many more questions
Before you became a memory
Even though you had to leave
Your light lives on inside of me
As long as I'm alive, there'll always be the memory

(I wish I'd asked you so many more questions)
Even though you had to leave
Your light lives on inside of me
(Before you became a memory)
As long as I'm alive, there'll always be the memory
(I wish I'd asked you so many more questions)
Even though you had to leave
Your light lives on inside of me
(Before you became a memory)
As long as I'm alive, there'll always be the memory
(I wish I'd asked you so many more questions)
Even though you had to leave
Your light lives on inside of me
(Before you became a memory)
As long as I'm alive, there'll always be the memory
(I wish I'd asked you so many more questions)
Even though you had to leave
Your light lives on inside of me
(Before you became a memory)
As long as I'm alive, and for all of eternity

And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of good times
Never fading, never fading away
And now you live in my mind
Kaleidoscope of your light
Never fading, never fading away
