lyrics

Eloise by Jen Hawley

Was it Droster Road
Or did you live on Ferris Lane?
Were we half past ten
Or chasing after seventeen?
Freezie pops and crushing
On the boys across the street
Time stood still with you my bestie, Eloise

Honeysuckle fields
Right across the avenue
Running wild in fragrances
On sunny afternoons
Carving hearts and names
On our favorite secret tree
Time stood still with you my bestie, Eloise

Building tunnels in my basement
Instead of in the snow
Your mom told me you can’t come out and play
It’s just too cold
Didn’t see you for a while
The ladies whispered when i asked
Time stood still without you bestie, Eloise

First time back in years
I brought you a bouquet
Filled with honeysuckle
From the place we used to play
Dates and hearts now carved in stone
Can’t quite recall my name
All that comes to mind
Is honeysuckle in the breeze
Time stands still, I miss you bestie Eloise
