Your face and this city. And the bar that we fell in love in
The winters spent here feeling so long and distant
Your hands getting cold. Sad to see the years that we spent alone
We were young and happy and never thought that we’d grow apart
Wedding invitations on the refrigerator
That we never attended, though we always meant to
Photos that tell only half of the story
Of the nights that we spent and the years that I owe you
Arm & arm we’ll bring this party down
Your heart. Swells true. Know the things i’ll never get to tell you
Your mom stopped by on a Saturday. It just made.you lose it
Your head. Finally clear. No car of yours in the driveway
The patio lights and the nights that we missed all this summer.
(lyrics from The Hold Steady’s ‘The Weekenders’)
I remember the metal bar. I remember the reservoir
And you could say that our paths have crossed before
I remeber the OTB. The five second delivery
And you could say that our paths have crossed before
I think they know exactly what happened
I don’t think it needs any explaining
I’m pretty sure I wasn’t your first choice
I think I was the last one remaining
I wish we hadn’t gone and destroyed it cuz
I was thinking we could pull another weekender
