lyrics

Well this always felt like home
This little town with bricks laid down with stone
And since you left, I've got nowhere to go
I guess I'll go to Jake's after it's done

We used to laugh, we used to walk these lonely streets
With too many people, and too many places to eat
Those lonely towers were staring down in shame
Since you left me waiting in the rain

And I said, "Don't go"
You said that I don't know "all the awful things that I've been going through"

I'll always remember the day
I'll always remember the favor you asked me
I lost my lunch on the street
I must have put too much gin in my coffee
Did you really mean what you said?
Did you really mean what you said to Mary?
I'll always remember the songs
I'll always remember the songs we were singing

Do you remember laying on the roof
Of our friends' apartment with nothing left to prove?
Those wonder years were gone before we knew
Even after I punched through the window

But we spend days in a drunken haze
And we never came up with the right words to say

I said, "Don't go"
You said that I dont know "all the awful shit that I've been going through"
