Another Round

Is it just me, or does he sing "I will BOTHER you down and out" on the second to last time he says that sentence? O.o

When she goes storming out I run for cover Rolling like thunder clouds Hanging above her - She's pissed and leaves.

Ring in the witching hour Spells that I'm singing Rain come and drown me out Sinking deep below - He's wishing that she'll come back 'round.

Can you go another round I will follow you down and out Lets go another round I will follow you down and - Down and out is often referred to as a "quickie." Then he changes his mind and wants to lay around after sex and not leave so fast.

We could just lay around Stare at the ceiling Want to forget about One for the feeling - He wants this nice reassuring feeling to last and hopes that this feeling will overpower the anger.

Room full of photographs Box full of letters Come on make it last Nothing else matters right now - They've been together for obviously some time now and he's put in good effort. He wants this to continue and not peter out.

Here's what Dave said about this song in an interview...

"This song was written around the time of the second album, this was written maybe eight years ago and just never really had a place on any of the other records."

This is one of those songs that was just meant to be played on the acoustic. I love singing along to this song. The verses just flow like some amazing song-writing awesomeness warm butter!

...or something.

i love this song.. it's so calm and peaceful i like it :)

not bad, much better than Razor i'd say

One of my favorite tracks off the acoustic disk. (And most of it is in minor, which I absolutely love.) It's a very passionate, moving song. Especially when the harmonica solo is featured.

As with other songs off the acoustic portion to In Your Honor, this one puzzles me. There is the lame idea that it could just be a mishmash of feelings and emotions, and/or the infatuation that often accompanies love (or lust, whichever is suited to your personality/situation/etc.), and/or just any of the complexities that inevitably happen in romance. I really hate to say it's a love song (because that is so predictable), but unfortunately I can't think of much else. :o/ Anyone have any ideas?

i think the rock album isn't that great: all the songs seem to be about the same thing. except for best of you. that is one hell of a song, my friends.

but the accoustic on the other hand, is amazing. especially this song.

i think it means that he loves someone and, no matter what, he loves her for who she is (his wife??):

'when she goes storming out i run for cover rolling like thunder clouds hanging above her ring in the witching hour spells that i'm singing rain come and drown me out sinking deep below

maybe she has a temper (when she goes storming out), but he likes it if it means loving her, or to sink into her (ring in the witching hour).

'We could just lay around Stare at the ceiling Want to forget about One for the feeling

he doesn't care where he is, or what he's doing, a silence is comfortable with her.

'Room full of photographs Box full of letters Come on make it last Nothing else matters right now'

memories of their times together (room full of photograph, box full of letters). he wants to make time with her last so he can have a good memory of her.

'Lets go another round I will follow you down and out Lets go another round I will follow you down and out'

he wants to spend all the time with her. he will agree with her, and love her, no matter where she's going.

i love this song, it's great.
