if you promise me

you won't leave first

if you promise me

you won't leave

clear the books of the pictures

summers between six and nineteen

you were younger

take them all off the wall

so you can see us all

alone and you're older

all for me and my

gemini

why can't i

watch out for july

gemini

eaten alive

from the inside

remember nights when we used to drive

i'm surprised that we're still alive

you didn't have any headlights on your car

we used to drive so slow

stick our heads out the window and breath in the night

you and lou at the U. '62

take a ride when cells divide

cause kansas doesn't make a continent

it just kills you

way out west

gemini

why can't i

watch out for july

gemini

eaten alive from the inside

and if you promise me

you won't leave first

if you promise me

you won't leave

all the things we'll miss you doing

stick around for kissing cousins

tasting blood you've got suspicions

convictions that carry you back home

gemini

why can't i

watch out for july

gemini

eaten alive from the inside

i think i'm tasting your blood again

have to have a suspicion

take a trip to the doctor

i wish that you were here right now

you said that you would never leave me

but now it looks like you're leaving

time is all we wish for a kiss if you were here right now

clear the books of the pictures

summers between six and nineteen

you were younger

take them all on the wall

so you can see us all

alone and you're older

and you'll say

if you promise me

you won't leave first

and if you promise me

that you won't leave
