Kilgore Court

[Verse 1] All these years racing by Was it really so long ago Time slips through my fingers Gone before I know We'd sneak down to the docks Crab lines in our hands Two fearless fishermen Teamwork with a plan [Verse 2] Do you recall the steep hill on Kilgore Court Skateboards humming makeshift go-karts Built with prayers Running short on brakes and better judgment Yet we worked every day Chasing wild laughter Every time we crashed halfway [Verse 3] Crisp nights bundled up, cookies warm from the plate The Wizard of Oz in the basement The memories never fade A house that glowed with comfort Always open door Those simple, old times I find I'm longing for [Chorus] Summer stretched out, glowing fireflies took flight Frogs sang by the pools as we played into the night On Rumsey Island, daring ghosts to show hunting for adventure, caring not if we found gold [Verse 4] Then suddenly we moved, a map dotted with change A mansion turned memory, all our rules rearranged New streets felt strange and the world a little colder A new town, new faces, both of us a little older It took years before the truth became clear Parents made choices we weren't meant to hear Still, good times survived in the midst of the test Generations grow when the old ones find rest [Outro] But my heart always circles back again To the crabbing lines and laughter and my sister as my friend And the daring runs down that hill behind Kilgore Court No matter how life shifts, that's where my spirit's moored
