Written in early 2002 for the acoustic demo of my band Madison Lint (which also featured Ken and Jim!), this is about nostalgia and hoping that to be thought well of.
lyrics
Hey, ho, watch you go. Tint my memory with a passing glow
Changing all, I think, I don’t know for you
Fine, fade, passing time. Seal my senses with a glossy grime
Drawn in full and resting my mind on you
I feel I hope, I feel I hope, I feel I hope, I feel I hope
You won’t look back on me and feel you have to look away
You, when I was mine… Come off empty with an ass in line
Maybe the years will take off the shine from you.
Love, loss, aftertouch; pray the premise won’t amount to much
Pretty darn free, but left in the clutch of you
I feel I hope, I feel I hope, I feel I hope, I feel I hope
You won’t look back on me and crack on me and
Fade out into black on me and wither into fact on me and
Feel you have to look away.
Hey, ho, watch you go. Wipe my memory with a glancing blow
Changing what, I don’t care to know, for you
I feel I hope
