lyrics

Yesterday is always better, and last year will be ours
When I kissed you under the beerlight,
Watched by voyeuristic stars
Yeah, and I was like you and you were like me
And maybe that’s still true, in another place and time.

The winter it was cold that year, a stillness in the air
I wished that I could set out running and fix the absence there
And maybe it was within reach,
But it was much too weak for us to hang onto.

I’m trying to find the idea of you in the body of someone else,
But you’re long gone
The storm don’t strike three times
Not even twice.

She claimed I could not bridge the distance,
But that was never true.
I was cold and famished, strung out,
Gone on a train to you
I hear that lonesome whistle blow, and I forget to breathe.

Now I’m trying to find the idea of you in the body of someone else,
But it’s all gone.
I was too far away
To speak then, why bother now.

It’s a long drive home, no need to break the silence now.
I could run a thousand miles, if I still knew how
You were like me and I was like you, we both could be so cruel,
But then that’s nothing new.

Trying to find the idea of you in the body of someone else,
But you’re long gone
The storm don’t strike three times
Not even twice.
