A bit cringeworthy really, but in the interests of full disclosure: I obviously went to the trouble of typing this up many years ago so I must have thought it worthwhile back then. I think I played it in C#m and referred to it as “The C#m Song” in the years I played it live.
I’m clearly still trying to leave the memory of someone
behind… but that someone keeps entering those vacant moments when I was alone ….
I’LL NEVER WRITE
I took a long time to write
I took a long time to call
You know it’s because I love you
I’ve been thinkin’ of you all day long girl
Sitting here at this window staring out to sea
I keep dreaming of you – you, me, us
Wondering why we ever parted
What I think is not what happened
Why don’t we just get together and thrash it all out again?
We’ll see who’s right
We’ll see who’s wrong
Already I know it’s best left
dead
So I’ll never write and I’ll never call
Another time another place and another space
When time has done its work
And I can see your face and see the sea
See the sea
See the sea
