| From hazy days to something real
|
| Too far in to walk away, though I think I know the deal
|
| I watched her face turn white to red, and then it hit me, she said «I've seen enough
|
| I know you’re a dying breed»
|
| Go to meet Samantha
|
| Picture what I’ve missed the most
|
| Her, Garfield Ave, and all the record stores
|
| The shady dives we’d haunt as ghosts
|
| I draw my coat closed and bound up the stairs 'cause I’m back from the war
|
| Feel the fear setting in, can’t relate anymore
|
| Then I’m met with a note stuck with gum to the door
|
| You’re not alone, welcome home
|
| We dropped into the sofa, the ugly scenes are gone
|
| You can’t stay mad that long, some brains are just wired wrong
|
| We talk about the weather and the color clouds are lined
|
| You’re bored, I’m counting time, I got thirty days behind me
|
| Catch a cab on Lyndale
|
| Heading downtown past Block E
|
| It’s all cleaned up, there’s no more Moby Dick’s
|
| This place ain’t what it used to be
|
| And yet I’m still me, in from the cold, reminded I’m unhip
|
| When my fingers are thawed I’m still losing my grip
|
| I keep standing and sitting and thumbing my chip
|
| It’s heads no, and tails go
|
| We dropped into the sofa, the ugly scenes are gone
|
| You can’t stay mad that long, some brains are just wired wrong
|
| We talk about the weather and the color clouds are lined
|
| You’re bored, I’m counting time, I got thirty days behind me |
