Best Man - Trophy Eyes

I can feel it getting colder again

The days start to shorten

And the leaves dance like thoughts in the wind

Think back to the same time last year

Not much has changed since

14 Herbert Street

My friends will all move away

But I’ll still call them when I can

Another day — another train

Another night inside my head

And not a minute passes by

That I don’t think of what you said

Another friend another debt

I thought I’d already felt

Everything I’d ever get to feel

The memory numbs me still

And I can’t go back there again

The tiny room upstairs

The year that time stood still

You weren’t doing so well yourself back then

But you always had time for me

It rained nearly every day then

Desperate for a means to an end

Anything that we could manage

To make it stop

I thought I’d already felt

Everything I’d ever get to feel

The memory numbs me still

And I can’t go back there again

The tiny room upstairs

The year that time stood still

Midday

At Flirtation hill

Sitting in your car

You asked me what was wrong

I said I’m tired of waking up

You sped at the fence

That bordered the edge

And when I begged you to stop

You looked at me and said

«Don't say it if you don’t mean it.»

I thought I’d already felt

Everything I’d ever get to feel

The memory numbs me still

And I can’t go back there again

The tiny room upstairs

The year that time stood still

«Don't say it if you don’t mean it.»
