The Background Lyrics

Cover art for The Background lyrics by Third Eye Blind

Beautiful song... simply put. We all have that one person we are always going to think about and remember... and regardless of why and how that relationship faded(it doesn't even have to be one of a romantic sort), you are going to hold it in a certain light, and find yourself daydreaming about life that may've happened if you still were as close to this person as you once were. So to an extent, you're making plans hoping that somehow they'll be there, if only in your mind... (I'm very guilty of this... dwelling and overanalyzing and hoping and planning JUST IN CASE)and you rememveer things you used to do, and words you exchanged... and you feel them, feel that you still "Get them" even though you're through. And theyre always there... in the background.

Just a beautiful song.
