On the Concourse Lyrics
It started off as an ending
I'll never see her sad eyes again
Silently meeting them on the concourse
Tears promised never to forget
Remember that city, shining like jewelry
Changing beneath us on our way back home
Where the painting hangs in the living room
I am still there holding my hands
And I'll never get used to it
I'll never be what I want
Hard as I try, I wont be anywhere
Glory in the highest
Voices are praising
Tongues are dividing
Buildings explode and fall down like children
Stand up and reach for a table's leg
So far from here listening inside your head
Clouds are spitting dust
With each lesson you're learning
That you won't find truth here, but you're still driving
There is no other way you could have gone
Could have gone, could have gone
I'll never be where you are
I love you more than this heart could ever show
But you won't remember anything
Anything
Remind you of me
Sleep in the quiet place where you can be alone
Anything you want from me
I love you more than this heart could ever show
And you will never get used to it
Because you won't remember anything that happened
And you won't be anywhere
I'll never see her sad eyes again
Silently meeting them on the concourse
Tears promised never to forget
Changing beneath us on our way back home
Where the painting hangs in the living room
I am still there holding my hands
And I'll never get used to it
I'll never be what I want
Hard as I try, I wont be anywhere
Voices are praising
Tongues are dividing
Buildings explode and fall down like children
Stand up and reach for a table's leg
So far from here listening inside your head
Clouds are spitting dust
With each lesson you're learning
That you won't find truth here, but you're still driving
There is no other way you could have gone
Could have gone, could have gone
I love you more than this heart could ever show
But you won't remember anything
Anything
Remind you of me
Sleep in the quiet place where you can be alone
Anything you want from me
I love you more than this heart could ever show
And you will never get used to it
Because you won't remember anything that happened
And you won't be anywhere
this song..... makes me very sad. but not quite. it just gives me.. those vibes... that i just want to die, yanno.? but then i listen to something not so deep of theirs and it pulls me right out of the stance. =P
This song is so beautiful. Very melancholy and lovely nonetheless. Perfect for a rainy day.
Joe Knapp has a wonderful voice. This band should be as well known as other indie-pop bands like Wilco and The Shins. Son, Ambulance is just as good IMO.
