Amy

 Amy wandered aimlessly around

Got drunk by the Citadel while sitting on the ground

Brought her old film camera and a pint of cheap beer

Took pictures of the setting sun behind the Halifax pier

CHORUS
We just barely crossed paths

Not enough for me to make the journey back

She said she gotta friend down there, but don’t make it down that often

But I’ll give you a call, give you a call, if I’m headed down to Boston

Wore a salmon skirt down to her ankles

Exposing her thrifted brown oxford shoes

Balanced a sketchbook on her knees with her favorite charcoal pen

Drew the city skyline, over and over again

CHORUS
We just barely crossed paths

Not enough for me to make the journey back

She said she gotta friend down there, but don’t make it down that often

But I’ll give you a call, give you a call, if I’m headed down to Boston

Before she knew it, it was dusk

Threw her leather backpack on her shoulder and sprinted to catch her bus

Liked to soak in the headlights of the passing by cars

Pretend she was in a movie and she reached to catch the stars

CHORUS x2
We just barely crossed paths

Not enough for me to make the journey back

She said she gotta friend down there, but don’t make it down that often

But I’ll give you a call, give you a call, if I’m headed down to Boston
