Smoking from the window of your childhood room
Feeling sixteen now you’re thirty-one
Been here been there been in between
What do you have to show for all you’ve done?
Followed love across the continent
Lived the life you dreamt you would
Closed many bars played many stages
But you’re back to square one
- and she’s gone for good.
But we don’t dwell on bygones do we
We just get another round
We put a spin on all that happened
Better once lost than never found
So before you think this song is all
just darkness, grief and gloom
If you never lost somebody say yeah! (YEAH!)
And then get out of the room.
Trains and buses ease the pain
Changing scenery dries the eye
Don’t care about the destination
Landscapes, backwards, passing by
Cuz the comfort’s in the moving
The rattling of the wheels
When you don’t know where your home is
Or how home even feels
But we don’t dwell on bygones do we
We just get another round
We put a spin on all that happened
Better once lost than never found
So before you think this song is all
just darkness, grief and gloom
If you never lost somebody say yeah! (YEAH!)
And then get out of the room.
On a night train
God knows where
A crescent moon
A vacant stare
The stars you know
She sees them too
While he holds her
And you hold you
But we don’t dwell on bygones do we
We just get another round
We put a spin on all that happened
Better once lost than never found
So before you think this song is all
just darkness, grief and gloom
If you never lost somebody say yeah! (YEAH!)
And then get out of the room.
