lyrics

So, I know I’ve felt like this before, I didn’t want it anymore, I didn’t wanna care
Thoughts of my loaded emptiness, my antiquated tenderness that I don’t wanna share
I might take it from you and your attitude, until the bitterest end of my nerves
And that lyrical touch, doesn’t mean that much
The sawdust of her melodies have all but blown away

And that’s why you will find me on any given night, drinkin’ on the east end of town
If growin’ old means learnin’ how to learn to love again
Then I don’t wanna be that man, with a blessing and a curse

It’s lovely to have met you but it hurts

So, you’ve done this little dance before, you’re tired of the metaphore to say the least
Thoughts, what are they even good for? The ones you know you’ve had before, the ones you can’t share no more.

The sand and the sea by the coastline, the seagulls and the breakers ease my worry mind
Though I may long for a sailor’s song, takin’ me far away from city streets

You’ll still be sure to find me on any given night, drinkin’ on the east end of town
If growin’ old means learning how to learn to love again
Then I don’t wanna be that man, with a blessing and a curse

It’s lovely to have met you but it hurts

It’s lovely to have met you but it hurts
