Methuselah Lyrics
pass a message to you and your lover
like a dirty bouquet with your wine
i will tie to my body some roses
i will fly til i get you alive
are you thinking of me now, Methuselah?
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?
when i'm lost with myself i see lions
lying golden on beaches of white
i see men wet their boats in the weather
carry me as i drift in the night
i don't think of you
when i'm missing you
are you thinking of me now, Methuselah?
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?
i don't think of you
when i'm missing you
are you thinking of me now, Methuselah?
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind?
are you thinking of me now, Methuselah?
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?
like a dirty bouquet with your wine
i will tie to my body some roses
i will fly til i get you alive
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?
lying golden on beaches of white
i see men wet their boats in the weather
carry me as i drift in the night
when i'm missing you
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?
when i'm missing you
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind?
i'm a passenger
i go i go i go i go along
have you found a place that's deeper than the corners of your mind
to settle down?

"I don't think of you when I'm missing you"
That line hits so hard. It's such a hard thing to explain but is easily something we've all felt or will feel at some point in our lives.
That being said, it can be taken two different ways. The first being that you can miss the idea of a person with out really ever recognizing who they were or what you miss about them. The second way it can be interpreted is that the feeling of missing someone can become all consuming and be the only thing one thinks about.
It's interesting how this line can be so superficial or altruistic depending on how you look at it.
