lyrics

I remember how I’d sit and listen to Edie on the lawn
A lager and your letters in my hands, I felt the best I have
I know I said it’s what I wanted
And it is, I think
The problem was always mine
And I’ve always known it

I’ve missed you in the morning and I saw you everywhere at night
I know it was me, but you don’t need to blame me
And it hurts, even though it’s what I wanted
In a way, anyway
It hurts and I’m happy at once
Or so it seems

Lost in the bewilderness, you’re flying on
I wasn’t meant to see, but the truth can’t always be concealed
How much in touch with his feelings can a grown boy be
When the minor key’s in town

I remember how I’d sit and listen to Edie on the lawn again
You and I were in mutual zugzwang
And I looked like Quim Barreiros
But I was Jimmy Dean
In his antepenultimate feature
Or so it seemed

But sometimes I wonder if you were ever really happy before
I’m glad you’re feeling better now
And I don’t know my feelings, I only feel them
Now the minor key’s in town
