lyrics

There are things I only remember when I’ve had a migraine, and it’s March or April, and it smells like rain.
There are things that run through my head endlessly on a timer, and it’s just the stupidest crap.
And I’ll never remember what I felt writing this song, and whatever it was didn’t last very long.
‘Cos things always change, even when you desperately want them to remain exactly the same.

Seems I get one thing a year to remember.
I wish that I could pick and choose which one to keep.
I’d choose her three-year-old laugh.
(And not the time The Microphones played in my living room.)

Could I write in a diary? (There’s no doubt that you could.)
Could I take lots of photos? (Yes, you definitely could have.)
Could I blog like crazy? (Or bother blogging at all.)
Could I capture everything? (Any one of those things.)
But the fact remains: when I see my past on a screen it makes me sad.
It’s like I’m watching TV.
It’s like it’s somebody else.

Seems I get one thing a year to remember.
I wish that I could pick and choose which one to keep.
I’d choose her three-year-old laugh.
