I saw Virginia get rid of Langley
And its secrets too
I held your hand
And sat there knowing
That we'd make it through

I saw this man dispose of hunger
And soap operas too
I saw this field that grew perfection
Full of things you'd do
I saw this box get rid of heartache
And cure cancer too

When I awoke I sat there hoping
This is what we'll do
If we can we will leave a letter
And this song for you
And we'll write once a day
And float it through the sea to you

We'll regret all those things we thought of
But didn't ever do
If we can we will leave a letter in this song
For you

And we'll write once a day
And float it through the sea to you
We'll regret all those things we thought of
But didn't ever do

When the sky seems to clear
Who will then be left but a few
Me and you
