Eleanor by Xander Corbett Lyrics

Her eyes were shining golden sunbeams
I’d chase her while she chased her dreams
We met up in the woods, behind her childhood neighborhood
Back when everything was good and she still loved me

Her hair flowed in the wind like leaves in the fall
No matter the circumstance, she’d always stand tall
Nobody could break her down, she learned to swim so she’d never drown
And I must say, I still love her, but I hate this town

She’s so afraid to fall, and she knows i don’t fear death at all
Why did I make her feel so small?
Sometimes I wanna call her up
But I know damn well I’ve done enough
She hurt me, and I know it’s all my fault

She wore that flowy dress in the summer
I let her go, what a bummer
She could’ve been my lover
She had me, heart and soul, but she left me in the cold
Maybe i could’ve been better to her
Maybe i could’ve been better to her
Maybe i could’ve been better to her
