From the recording Nostradamus Famous Cherry Jam
Lyrics
She showed him the seven wonders of the world He felt the silent voltage of a woman’s touch
He could stare into her eyes unafraid
He was comfortable
Didn’t mind the blinking hazard lights too much
Cause he loved her so more than himself
And he was sure, no, more than sure
that she felt the same way too
It was easy to think that they would feel that way forever
But every tales a tragedy if you see it the whole way through
First times
become hard times
become big fights
I guess this is so long
Now they’re speaking a dead language Nobody did nothing wrong
And what’s the point of mourning a landline phone or CD rack
or a magazine subscription
or a laserdisc collection
Cause he knows she’s a long time gone He’s happier now
They’ve both moved on
He severed the connection
So why does her picture still upset him?
Every new beginning conceals the blueprints of the end It’s way past time to wake up and put history to bed
He just turns off his phone and grins
I thank you
I love you
I miss you
I warned you
I hate you
Didn’t mean to
I’m glad you spent some time with me on the ride I thank you
I’m see-through
It’s overdue
I’m sorry
It was a heaven while it lasted, but this is goodbye
I thank you
I love you
I miss you
I warned you
I hate you
Didn’t mean to
I’m glad you spent some time with me on the ride I thank you
I’m see-through
It’s overdue
I’m sorry
It was a heaven while it lasted, but this is goodbye
