Swarming Things - Kite Night Lyrics

We drove out to the lake in your buick lesabre
We picked up aaron on the way, hadn't seen him in forever
We sat in the grass and waited for the stars
Counting the billion little things that were ours

Aaron brought the kite out at sunset; with great effort he got it in the air
The streamers rippled in the orange light, your hands ran through my hair
And i'd remember that tender touch in the months ahead
A tiny little moment that was ours

I think about montana when i close my eyes; i think about the fargo county fair
I think about the rhythms you tapped out on my thighs... you weren't even aware
Sometimes i drive out to the lake and i think about the kite
Try not to think about the bad times, or what you did that night
But you gave me these scars, though i don't remember how
All that potential seems so unimportant now, but it was ours
