Lyrics '05: Never Again - The Magnetic Fields

'05: Never Again

Never again down this cobblestone lane
We’ll walk in the rain
Just having a day
Never when newspaper pages blow by
We’ll watch as they fly
And sing what they say
I guess there’ll be
Other fish in the sea
But I don’t want fishes
And you don’t want me
Never again will we walk in the snow
With nowhere to go
For ten centuries
Lately I’m thinking of packing it in
And going to Berlin or Los Angeles
I wish I had some place better to go
But lately I can’t take New York in the snow
I’m sorry I wasted your summer
I shouldn’t have stolen your light
Instead of me gawking
I should’ve kept walking
Everything would be alright
Never again will I look in your eyes
And see your surprise
At not being dead
Forever then I won’t know what to do
With these houses for you
I’ve built in my head
I wish I had something better to do
But even my own clothes remind me of you
