your bus rolled away
behind a sunrise that was smothered in black clouds.
seems like everybody's leaving me now,
but i'm leaving soon anyhow.

the room is cold without your things around.
alone, i don't know what to do with myself.
they say the hardest part is keeping it down,
i say the hardest part is watching you drown.

can you take me back there again?
i want that feeling again.

i road my bike to that house,
and there's a new curtain hanging in our window.
seems like everything is changing right now.
will you still feel the same come tomorrow?

i've got this photograph of you and me.
you've got that same crooked smile on your face.
we should have died inside that photograph,
for you were going away for a while.

can you take me back there again?
i want that feeling again.
can I make you alright again?
can it just be the way it was back then, back then?

it's been quite a while,
i leave you a message to see how you've been.
seems like every time i call you around.
are you ever coming back again?

can you take me back there again?
i want that feeling again.
can I make you alright again?
can it just be the way it was back then, back then?

    sigh I miss the old female singer...

    (Yeah sorry, I don't know what else to say about this song. Their first album was so much better)

    The old female singer was really great, but I think if you give this album a chance, you'll like it just as much as the first. I didn't like it when I first heard it as much, but now it's growing on me.

    Yeah, I know what you mean - I wrote this before I heard One Track Mind, Four Track Heart. I can't stop listening to that song now, it's great. But I still prefer the first album even though I'm liking their newer album more and more.

    I think a girl has left him and she hasn't come back when she said she would and he is hung up on her still.

    I also think the lyrics are: 'seems like every time i call you are out' not around.

    :) love the song, love the band, not sure which album I like better.
