Me and annie were sitting in the car
And we were listening to the tape you made
There were some songs i wouldn't have chosen, but all in all we both agreed it was pretty great
We werent talking about anything;
We felt pure and unadulterated
I would forget why we were laughing
And she would forget what we came to the car for
I thought i saw you the other day
I was at the park by your old job
Isnt it funny how the city keeps beating on, after we're long gone?
You used to say we were to pretty for this place
That night you said a lot of dumb things
You were as soft as i always wondered,
And i always wondered
What you were like
When you were younger
What were you like?
I saw your eyes that night,
They looked like empty pools of light.
They looked like diamonds.
And they were trying to tell me something
They said nothing.
It was a little after midnight when the first few drops fell,
Did you feel them honey?
Or did you feel nothing?
Did you feel nothing?
Did you feel nothing?
Did you feel nothing?
And i'm forgetting faster than i ever thought i could
I'm learning i can give up trying to do good
The stars out here shine pretty
They are numerous and pure
I never cry, i never scream, i know i should
And i'm forgetting faster than i ever thought i could
I'm learning i can give up trying to do good
And the stars out here shine pretty
They are numerous and pure
I never cry, i never scream, i know i should
I never cry, i never scream, i know i should
I never cry, i never scream, i know i should
