    As the junebugs start to jitter
    I wonder how I'll tell you about their sound
    and as the moths knock on the window
    I'm scared to turn around
    If you were here to shoo them away for me
    I'd stand behind your shoulder
    squirming constant, latched your hand
    waiting for the air to grow colder,
    without the busy warmth of little moths and junebugs

    And when the summer days grow short
    and the junebugs start to leave
    we could keep one in a jam jar
    till a crispy autumn eve
    You wouldn't have to shoo them off
    since that week you had to go
    I had to learn to love my junebugs
    because you weren't there to show
    me how to shoo off little moths and junebugs.

    Now all the leaves are on the ground
    there's a dent inside my soul
    there's only you to fill it
    but the junebugs made me whole
    When I look into my junebug jar
    I see that he has died
    there's also my reflection
    and yours is right beside
    but I'm still rather sad without my junebugs.

    Shimmering snowflakes continue to fall
    and my little bug has froze
    but I still have you next to me
    and our love does none but grow
    There's no more powdery little moths
    outside it's far too cold
    so I may prefer a butterfly kiss
    and your heart, which gleams like gold
    and I fear we're getting on, getting on without our junebugs.

    It's creeping past a sunny May
    and I tell you all about their sound
    the junebugs on the curtain
    I'm scared to turn around
    You start to shoo them off with me
    they dance upon our shoulders
    I whisper that I love you
    now the weather won't grow colder
    without the warmth of you and I, and our little junebugs.

    :rolleyes:

    Second time I've read this... haha, at one point I almost had a tear but I'm a little stoned and playing blind melon songs so I started laughing while I was reading it.

    That... is... AWESOMEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    No, I really liked it.

    I skipped it at first, then went back and read it.

    Pretty song------- It could be a themesong to a new religious order, but I can't organize it.
