Everything Reminds Me of You

I've seen you looking over at me You were never any good, being discreet I told you once before, "everybody makes mistakes." Your self-deprecation is holding you back Why don't you just say something? I can never hear you Your fragile self-esteem is holding you back I still keep your letters in my table drawer, the one with the lava-lamp I'd still feel much better if I could get more Put that book down, you're fooling no-one I know that's what you read when you're feeling pre-occupied It's cold outside, a little damp Have a safe drive home, you'll see me again

The threads in the carpet make up familiar shapes I can still remember when it was nice to live here Everything worthwhile has taken off, almost all at once Every day worth living has yet to catch up to the rest I see them when I'm dreaming, the hazy figures shooting left to right They move like great fireflies on a morning swept with fog I'll just move on, then, this isn't healthy. There's more to come, right? There's gotta be more to come

I haven't seen your face in so long Anybody else would have forgotten everything about you I can't forget I even remember your breathing And how you held your arms on a cold day I feel sick
