Cover art for In the Lost and Found (Honky Bach) lyrics by Elliott Smith

He's in love with a girl, obviously. It almost has a childish feeling. It's that beginning love? Where it's all cute and romantic. But she's got to leave him and he's asking her not to. But in the end she does. And to me he's saying that he's alone now but it's okay because he had that perfect love. He's not afraid to die because even though he didn't get to keep it he found what he was looking for.
