Text: Of Montreal. Requiem For O.m.m..
When I met you, I was just a kid
Hadn?t built up my defenses
So I gave my heart completely, Vaseline over the lenses
Memories don?t go away, I remember every day
I never ever stop wondering
Wondering if you still think of us
I don?t need a photograph, 'cause you?ve never left my mind
No you?ve never left my mind
I remember feeling like a ship
Whose captain was too drunk to steer
And you watched as I was sinking
Waving sadly from the pier
It?s such a burden to carry 'round
The vestiges of dead dreams
And I don?t want to make a wake out of my life
I just had to let you go
Hadn?t built up my defenses
So I gave my heart completely, Vaseline over the lenses
Memories don?t go away, I remember every day
I never ever stop wondering
Wondering if you still think of us
I don?t need a photograph, 'cause you?ve never left my mind
No you?ve never left my mind
I remember feeling like a ship
Whose captain was too drunk to steer
And you watched as I was sinking
Waving sadly from the pier
It?s such a burden to carry 'round
The vestiges of dead dreams
And I don?t want to make a wake out of my life
I just had to let you go
Of Montreal
Of Montreal
