Testo Goodbye Rocketship

I do what you tell me like it's my idea
I came down to find you, pretend that you're here
And I never could replace you, it's too dark to try
But I look for our memories, and their clothing, and their eyes

You didn't know, you didn't know

You're there when I need you, we talk on the phone I know that you've been trying to build us a home
Yet I scramble to find one with couches and boys
But all I hear's an echo, the sound of your voice

You didn't know, you didn't know

You may have more to teach me, but what haven't I heard?
Listening is easy, but learning is earned
I forgive you, and I thank you, you know all the reasons why
I'm sorry and I love you, all we can do is try

You didn't know how to raise me
Any more than I knew how to grow up
Childhood is over, and it wasn't enough
But Nina's in the garden and Rascal's on the roof
The charges against you, I know I have no proof
So goodbye to the Chelsea, goodbye to the rocket ship
There's only room for you and me there
And there's so much more to fit

You didn't know, you didn't know
You didn't know, you didn't know
You didn't know, you didn't know
