Fate

To me, the song represents a failed relationship because obviously the girl was younger and more capricious, and was mostly talk. The guy read in to everything she ever told him and convinced himself that it was love, and that they were meant to be, but obviously it didn't work out.

thanks

some lyrics are wrong again.

it's just, it's just i can't seem to fall asleep these days, and you can't seem to stop digging this grave. because you were eighteen at the time, and i was holding up these streets just fine.

place me on the scene, and i'll take everything that youy ever said to me. no, it wasn't just words. day after day after day. i call that fate.

darling i've been thinking about you and you were thinking, how much fun it was filling up our lungs. but don't you just see what's happened, yeah we never stay lonely. i can't bare to see you starting at the ceiling, you wait to, just wait to dream.

It's just, it's just I can't seem to fall asleep these days And you can't seem to stop digging this grave

'Cause you were only eighteen at the time And I was holding up these streets just fine Come on, oh, come on

Place me on your scene and I'll take Everything that you ever said to me No, it wasn't just words (No, it wasn't just words) But day after day after day I call that fate

Oh, darling I've been thinking about you And you are thinking how much fun it was Filling up our lungs

But don't you just see what's happened? Yeah, we never stay lonely, come on

Place me on your scene and I'll take Everything that you ever said to me No, it wasn't just words (No, it wasn't just words) But day after day after day I call that fate

(I can't bare to see you) Place me on your scene and I'll take (Staring at the ceiling) Everything that you ever said to me No, it wasn't just words (No, it wasn't just words) Day after day after day I call that

(I can't bare to see you) Place me on your scene and I'll take (Staring at the ceiling) Everything that you ever said to me No, it wasn't just words (No, it wasn't just words) Day after day after day I call that fate

Are you sure it's "place me on your scene and i'll take..."? I don't hear the 't' sound.

I've replaced all mine with the booklet lyrics. If these are wrong, it's because the booklet is wrong.

i think this is clearly a love song. about a young man and young woman that partied and dated at a young age. the song implies that the two were not the same age. guessing the guy is older cause im old school. haha. anyway yeah one of them is angry at the other for words that were said. seems like they are willing to forgive the the person just takes them back. i like the song mucho

Not to be a grammar nazi but it's 'bear' not 'bare'. Anyway, Beautiful song as with all Lydia's music. One of my favorites.
