it’s enough you mention me the other day  I found tracks we made still knew all the parts on both sides I guess no matter how  hard you try some things you can't erase from your life it’s enough you mention me now they  want to hear your voice not anyone's if you're of two minds you don't have to say much you can call it what you want— it'll be fine. no need for hesitation it’s enough you mention me

after you reintroduced to things  I thought I knew but now even viridian feels darker  than it was somehow. casablanca on mute  in my hotel room I've got some gossip for you  but i haven't figured out the proof the proof and I wanted to believe it when  we all sat down and you said this year was going to be  better than the last cuz half the time  I didn't know who you were and most of the time  I was afraid to ask but then i didn't ever want a clue a clue

moi je ne peux pas toi tu ne veux pas moi je te regarde toi tu te sépares   moi je ne peux plus toi tu ne sais plus moi je te reprends toi tu me surprends moi je te comprends toi tu es déçue car je suis si lent et toi tu es perdue et si tu n'es pas là c'est que tu ne m'aimes plus le ventre de l’amour est fini à son tour pourtant nous étions un pourtant nous étions bien pourtant nous étions un pourtant nous étions bien Mais si … (tu) Pars autre part, tu vois Vas voir autre part, tu vois Quand tu repars, tu vois, Ce sera trop tard tu vois     Quand pars autre part tu vois, Avec du retard tu vois Je serais encore, tu vois Loin de ton coeur, tu vois (repeat)

No measurements, no proofs no errors, no news and my eyes were  reflections of eyes  on the surfaces  of Half-Flemish art in low-lit museums  between secrets and  that winter felt like June-- no cares, no rules, just something in me  that I wanted to say but it fell too short No precedents, no truth no airs, no clues  on Vermont  in the silence of thought after the cinema along well-wrought rows of Victorian homes S still unfamiliar  that winter felt like June no cares, no rules just something in me  that I wanted to say but it fell too short introductions, second thoughts and  what troubled me never troubled you. 
5.
I've been listening to our first songs through a lost decade  seduced by the way  you never cared about their mistakes another summer somewhere they never seem to last so long-- should i wait for another  Who doesn't ever ask for much?    cuz it's been such a long time since I''ve heard our name a name that never felt quite right to abbreviate another summer somewhere they never seem to last so long should i wait for another  that doesn't ever ask for much?

You just can’t say the same But you can say nothing I feel my heartbreaking

When darkness fills the room with loss just stop you say it's harder than it sounds it’s hard to explain  If that’s true Just one drum I’ve read that axiom Just one drum Counterfactual  Just one drum I wanted to know What we were made of I keep telling you Just one drum I’m at a loss for words These old songs Just one drum  I wanted to know What we were made of When darkness fills the room  with loss just stop you say it's harder than it sounds it’s hard to explain
