"The Meadow" lyrics - LAURA VEIRS

We went to the meadow
No walls, no ads, no black balloons
Waving from the chain link fence
No bricks, no windows
Except for the two gold ones
You showed me, my friend
We went to the meadow

And we knew it wouldn't last
It was beautiful

We went to the meadow
No fear, no confusion, just a sliver of a moon
Cheering us from out in the blue
No hate, just spring's young light green leaves
Showing us what life can do
We went to the meadow
We went to the meadow

And we knew it wouldn't last
It was beautiful
We knew it wouldn't last
It was beautiful

We went to the meadow
We went to the meadow
