about

We are who we are, what do the others know? But poetry is not for me, so show me the way to go.

lyrics

We’re sharing a glass, you’re a ghost from the past
You were trouble then, and you look like trouble now
As you finger the cross around your neck
You have charms that no one ever expected when you were in Sunday school

You were always in my plans
But you weren’t in my comfort zone
And I know it’s so dumb now
And I should leave you on your own

I don’t remember any of these stories
Ending well, ending well, ending well
I don’t remember any of these stories
Ending well, ending well

We’re sharing a glass, not alone in the past
We were trouble then, and we look like trouble now
Now I’m counting the steps to your mother’s house
From the bar up the street where we used to hang out, it’s dark now, but I know how

You were always in my plans
But god if you weren’t quite insane
And I know it’s so dumb now
But I could kiss you just the same
