Signs and Symbols |
Wasn’t looking for a symbol wasn’t looking for a sign |
The summer rain so sudden came and washed the ink right from the page |
Isn’t it just fitting darling isn’t it just right |
The time erased we obliterate the book of you and I |
Your eyes were premonitions your expressions couldn’t lie |
Took a long hard look while you walked away |
I built shrines in my mind to your memory |
All I got back was misery |
In this ocean of a city I was oh so out to sea |
So I’ll die a drunkards death |
Tried to forget but I haven’t yet |
The solitude and empty rooms |
Is all that I’ve got left |
Take a long hard look while I fade away |
I took the train at dawn just to slip into your arms |
Nothing was the same and everything had changed |
and I left in defeat all alone in these streets thinking of you |
I built shrines in my mind to your memory |
All I got back was misery |
In this ocean of a city I was oh so out to sea |
So I’ll die a drunkards death |
Tried to forget but I haven’t yet |
The solitude and empty rooms |
Is all that I’ve got left |
Take a long hard look while I walk away |
You came around the corner oh a vision in that dress |
The years between us disappeared the pain it filled my chest |
I kissed you good bye softly and I wished you all the best |
The burden slipped from of the yoke and then the pain it left |
I built shrines in my mind to your memory |
All I got back was misery |
In this ocean of a city I was oh so out to sea |
Maybe we’ll look back and laugh and wonder how it went so fast |
The past aint dead it aint even past |
Take a long hard look |
While I walk away |
