about

A song for failed relationships.

lyrics

Tell me the one about when you were young and you were in love and how it was enough for you, to be
happy. You were so naïve because it was so brand new I guess you took it all for granted no one could’ve
blamed you for, not knowing what to do.
When things got hard, you watched the whole thing fall apart. Now she’s leaving in her best-friends car,
you should’ve seen the trouble from the start.
This was never going to be easy, but now you’re just lonely, living like strangers, barely speaking,
fighting back anger, staring at the shadows on the ceiling, listening to her breathing, thinking you’d feel
better if she just left, but the last thing you want now is an empty bed, can’t get things straightened in
your own head, you never thought you become your parents.
Tell me the one about when you were young and you were in love and how it was enough for you, to be
happy. You were so naïve because it was so brand new I guess you took it all for granted no one could’ve
blamed you for, not knowing what to do.
When things got hard, you watched the whole thing fall apart. Now she’s leaving in her best-friends car,
you should’ve seen the trouble from the start.
Now you’re counting wasted hours and days, trying to find the moment everything changed, trying to
find the words to say what she won’t hear now anyways. You couldn’t just communicate, with all your
pride you couldn’t shake, you couldn’t make it right, you wouldn’t make the time, you looked into her
eyes, told yourself she that she wasn’t lying, when she said everything was fine, you should’ve read the
between the lines, but now she’s driving out of sight, and putting you out of her mind.

Virtual Heaven
by Infinity Crush

Just found this by chance in the "if you like David Stone... section" - It's a beautifully warm record, clean and smooth, but without being polished to a shine. Perfect walking-in-Autumn record. David Stone
