Our initials are carved on a bamboo somewhere in India
In the archives we smile and wave in a vacuum of youth and euphoria
And I know it was a decade ago, but you’re on my mind
as fresh as the falling snow
Our footsteps in the sand of an island in the Andaman
Little did we know back then that soon I’d leave you for this land
And although it was a decade ago, you’re on my mind
as often as the waves flow
I still see you in my dreams and my mind tries to age you but it can’t,
‘cause it doesn’t know
What time has achieved, what the years have put you through,
you’re a man now and I loved a boy
I see you on your front porch, smiling with your baby in your arms
Just like you once held me on the shores, under bending palms, somewhere in India
It was a quick turn, we were lost in the rearview
Kissed by the curb, there was blood in our bedroom
And although life has torn us apart, somewhere
out there, on the road, deep under the dirt, we are India
