If You Can

This is a song I wrote, I don't really know how much I like it and I recorded the vocal about ten minutes after I woke up, but it is what it is. You'll probably have to turn your volume up a bit to hear it.

You made me breakfast this morning
There wasn't much to say
Goodbyes are hard, and I've already been gone
For years
And now I won't be around anymore, you can call if you want
I never liked making calls, you never know what the answer's gonna be
Who knows if it will be me
Oh, and you'll think back
To how I left you with hardly a word
And in the days to come you'll swallow hard and you will remember
My seventh birthday, balloons fly so high
We couldn't save them from that big blue sky
Before they faded from sight I asked you, where do they go?
You said, "I don't know"
The world can't help changing
And so neither can I
I like to drive at night, through little towns
And wonder what it's all about
Once, I thought I found it, I thought I had it, right in my hands
And I let go
And when the car stopped I started to cry
I could have just stayed still but it was a school night
So I came home and when you saw me, I think you knew but you didn't ask why
And we'll just ignore these things and live out our lives
And then we fly
It's pretty warm today
A good day for walking
And if it helps at all, I do think it was love, sometimes
And if I ever know for sure
I'll let you know
But if you don't hear from me
If I'm gone for good
I've left my things, I know you've found them, I knew that you would
Please save them, and then you'll save me
And if I come home again, don't say a word
Just love me if you can
