on the first night in june[00:00:23]
in a very crowded room[00:00:26]
the band was going on[00:00:29]
when you told me we were done[00:00:32]
so i couldn't play that song[00:00:35]
cause i wrote it about you[00:00:37]
yeah it always seems to come back to you[00:00:40]
but i don't have to tell you[00:00:46]
cause you've heard it all by now[00:00:49]
i'm just one single voice in a choir[00:00:52]
you won't hear me anymore[00:00:55]
just a bassist thumbing a tune[00:00:57]
but that rumble reminds me of you[00:01:03]
all the flash, all the fire[00:01:09]
all the foggy drinks perspired[00:01:12]
we were tucked into a booth[00:01:15]
in a far corner of the room[00:01:18]
and the music is loud[00:01:21]
and it's just bringing me down[00:01:23]
cause i know that i lost you[00:01:26]
the parking lot was dark[00:01:32]
and i walked out of the bar[00:01:35]
found some folks hanging around[00:01:38]
and we're on some highway now[00:01:41]
and the windows are down[00:01:44]
and i never felt so sad[00:01:46]
so i just tried not to think about you[00:01:49]
oh the final spot of sunlight[00:01:55]
is dying on the dash[00:01:58]
on some way too long road with some way too young folks[00:02:01]
if the man that you knew[00:02:07]
honestly wasn't me[00:02:09]
tell me honey: who could that be?[00:02:12]
there's a letter i wrote[00:02:19]
that i'll never send[00:02:25]
where i admit my weakness[00:02:31]
and i ask to see you again[00:02:37]
yeah i heard you were sorry[00:02:42]
by someone you call a friend[00:02:48]
in a letter i wrote[00:02:54]
that i'll never send[00:02:59]
cause there's ash in my heart[00:03:06]
where i used to burn[00:03:11]
the young voices have vanished[00:03:16]
the old whispers return[00:03:22]
but there's no one to hurt me[00:03:28]
and there's no one to hurt[00:03:34]
cause there's ash in my heart[00:03:40]
where i used to burn[00:03:45]
pictures of us dancing[00:04:04]
from a lifetime, a lifetime ago[00:04:10]
you in a green dress and i in a tweed vest[00:04:17]
in a blurry gang of ghosts[00:04:24]
pictures of us dancing[00:04:31]
from a thousand years ago[00:04:37]
late enough to kiss you[00:04:44]
still too early to go[00:04:50]
