lyrics
So I’ll tell you a story,
About a love that I lost.
It gets colder in the summer,
And in the winter, loses warmth.
Set in a dry September,
Before our tears ran over.
In bitter times, of dampened thighs.
When the world could be her lover.
She said, “Son, why don’t we run?
Until the stars have left us.”
He never crushed a single hope she had,
But in her dreams, behind the lust, we sang...
“(I don’t know why you feel the way you do)”
“Oh oh, woah oh...But you won’t take me with you.”
And they passed every wasteland.
From hometown bays, and hill to hill.
But he fell in love with the city,
While she found the road’s fatal thrill, they sang...
“(I don’t know why you feel the way you do)”
“Oh oh, woah oh...But you won’t take me with you.
I’ll be the same no matter what you call it.
I’ll be the same and don't you forget it.
I’ll be the same no matter what you call it.
I’ll be the same and don't you forget it.
About a love that I lost.
It gets colder in the summer,
And in the winter, loses warmth.
Set in a dry September,
Before our tears ran over.
In bitter times, of dampened thighs.
When the world could be her lover.
She said, “Son, why don’t we run?
Until the stars have left us.”
He never crushed a single hope she had,
But in her dreams, behind the lust, we sang...
“(I don’t know why you feel the way you do)”
“Oh oh, woah oh...But you won’t take me with you.”
And they passed every wasteland.
From hometown bays, and hill to hill.
But he fell in love with the city,
While she found the road’s fatal thrill, they sang...
“(I don’t know why you feel the way you do)”
“Oh oh, woah oh...But you won’t take me with you.
I’ll be the same no matter what you call it.
I’ll be the same and don't you forget it.
I’ll be the same no matter what you call it.
I’ll be the same and don't you forget it.
