Lyrics Hard to Remember - Los Colognes

Hard to Remember

My hands haven’t been this dirty since I was a kid
But the dirt of a child is a dirt of the wild unhip
Now the dirt of the man on dirty hands from things that he did
It don’t wash away on a summer’s day like it did as a kid
It’s hard to remember how easy it is
Now you’re lazy, or crazy
Or maybe you just got too much to give
It’s hard to remember how easy it was
To believe in what you’re seeing
When you look up above
At the billion stars on an untamed night back in ninety-four
When the grass and the trees and the wind
Was as cool as a living room floor
When you didn’t need drugs
You had enough hugs
To last a third world war
You had all that you need
But if not you could ask the neighbor next door
Been in love with two different women
With the very same name
And heartaches number one and two
Felt just about the same
Pullingmy finger on a slippery slope
In the driving rain
Thinking we could just start over
Like a video game
To believe in what you’re seeing
When you look up above
