Rocky Dennis’ Farewell Song (to the Blind Girl)
Blind girl, I missed you
I missed you so much
I've been sending you letters, trying to call you
But I can't seem to get in touch
I bet your mom and dad are scared of me
Or maybe they just care about their daughters
I think back upon summer camp
And I think I wanna show you more colours
Here's white, here's black
Here's the colour of my heart as it's starting to crack
Deep red, dark blue
I think I'm in love with you
(Think I'm in love with you)
Blind girl, I wish you were here
I wish we'd come closer
I wish you had met my family
My mom and Bulldozer
I think back upon summer camp
On New Years Eve when we danced
I could sit and watch my life go by
Or I could take a tiny chance, 'cause
Someday I'll be stuffed in some museum
Scaring little kids
With the inscription "carpe diem"
Something I never did
But can you remember
How we rode shiny horses
And we set courses
For the sky
And the ocean
And I tried to explain it to you
But it was too huge
Blind girl, I miss you
Blind girl, I miss you
Blind girl, I miss you
