about

recorded during a joyce & the nancy boys practice session.

lyrics

and first of all
the leaves have all fallen off the trees in this season by now
we haven't got our clothes on

and first of all
the winter's burning like a plague
a lit match in a sea of gasoline

and I'm sure you remember by now
how we never really closed our eyes
to the wind that was dragging us home
just sidled up silently to each other in bed
words stuck to our tongues

and now I can tell you, nice try
almost made me forget I wasn't alive
now I can tell you, nice try
never thought you were good enough to say you were mine

and first of all
the leaves have all fallen off the trees in this season by now
we haven't got our clothes on

and now we lie with strangers for a change
sucked into a sky we've never seen
and all that's keeping me
can't guess what he's going to say

and now I can tell you, nice try
almost made me forget I wasn't alive
now I can tell you, nice try
never thought you were good enough to say you were mine

and it's such a wonderful mess you've made of me
so float away with the generations of leaves
