lyrics

i really believe i should have died last year
missed the christmas lights, missed december cheer
missed a whole lot of seasons come around again
and all the days in between

here's to the things i would've been without
the taste of morning tea, one hundred and seventeen nights
the unworn jeans laying on the bed
and all the days in between

i remember the night i had that dream
there was nowhere else i'd rather be
now there's nothing else i dearly need
but those days in between

we'd lose a bunch of stories to time
my name lost in centuries of files
when all that's left of me are crumbs
i'd lose the dog walks in sunshine
a day-by-day, long-term decline
'cause that's all we do until the reaper comes

here's to the lost days i would've been without
seeing my mother's pain, watching my old dog die
a couple of nights spent in nyc
and all the days in between

i'd miss the way you take the load
everytime i cry to abbey road
now there's nothing else i dearly need
but rising suns and air to breathe
no there's nothing else i really need
but those days in between

Their sad indie noise is a dialogue from two perspectives featuring male and female vocals in turn. Hailing from Southend on Sea, UK, in earnest is made a trio by the inclusion of instrumentalist Toby Shaer. ... more
