One of the best songs on Dead Letter Office.
It would have fit on Reckoning very well (although Peter Buck said that the band had got tired of the song).
The lyrics are a bit strange, but I think it's about someone remembering a girl he loved long qgo.
All her postcards are stowed away in a drawer, but whenever he looks at them again, he remembers the past (earlier "ages" of her).
The second verse is even less clear, but I think the train is a metaphor for love, and the hanging bridge is the relationship that's over with the moment when the train falls.
