Cast back your mind and all the seven day old nostalgia
For reluctant to give back the borrowed time
We were weekend weary
Filled with springtime's might-be's
And the hellebore hues of after hours were only ours to see
How far have we come
Right here now could be anywhere in the world
Under a sky like this one,
So vague you can take it with you
Wear that smile, wear the whole damn day it's yours to pick and choose
Your favourite shirt of mine, suits you far better
When you can pretend that it's lived in
That you've been here forever
The motions we go through are practised routines
And have you seen the way I'm falling over for you?
Cast back your mind, this song won't write itself love
All I can think is giving it all away
It's all I can do to think, remembering outside my car
"She's got those beautiful, she's got the darkest eyes"
She looks at me like the springtime that wakes the trees
When the sun is so bright it burns a hole in the breeze
