[al:I Will Love You at All]
[00:08.49]We earmarked our August vacation as a fine place to fall apart.
[00:15.72]And we heard that a trial separation was a quaint idea for a new start.
[00:22.93]Then the city approached like a bandit, my hands shook as they gripped the wheel.
[00:30.28]As if I'd always known there's no place like home to show you the way that you feel.
[00:47.00]A rainy afternoon in your bedroom, clothes in two piles on the floor.
[00:54.92]One is labeled old couture, the other's marked alms for the poor.
[01:02.01]I'm just loitering trying to look helpful；you offer two corners of the sheet.
[01:09.03]We fold over and over and over again and then in the middle we'll meet.
[01:29.44]Now some days I feel like an engagement ring, resting on the ocean floor.
[01:36.92]Yet others just like that same Glen Campbell record found in every second hand store.
[01:44.35]Now right now I'm watching a drummer, haul his drums into a bar.
[01:51.82]And deep down I'm secretly happy, that I play the harmonica.
[01:58.64]No I'm not sayin I'm lazy, I just, take more time to digress.
[02:06.48]And of more than three ways I empty my days, now that you're not around to impress.
[02:13.98]And of more than three ways I empty my days, now that you're not around to impress.
[02:22.67]Those forming, morning birds.
[02:30.63]They don't do things by thirds.
[02:37.92]And your voice sounds just like it's reading, from a birthday telegram.
[02:44.81]It says you're looking a little older, I say that's funny because I am.
[02:52.91]Last year escaped by the window, and this year's going for a song.
[02:59.77]And the church bells they're plagiarizing, merrily we roll along.
[03:06.92]No we weren't together forever, but then what the hell does that mean?
[03:14.27]One persons lifetime the history of mankind, or the years since I turned seventeen?
[03:22.12]One persons lifetime the history of mankind, or the years since you turned seventeen?
[03:30.45]Yeah I was light headed unfettered not falsely, claimed to know the dimensions of love.
[03:38.13]I was prone to wild exaggeration, sayin things I had no concept of.
[03:45.29]Maybe love takes the form of a mountain, with no choice but forever to linger.
[03:52.29]Or maybe love lives in a soap bubble, at the mercy of a childs finger.
[03:59.91]But each one comes with a little rainbow, designed to hypnotize us.
[04:07.37]And I wouldn't trade one heart-broken minute, for a years worth of dull happiness.
[04:57.87]So I built myself another lifetime, oh how quick did the calendar grow?
[05:05.51]And right now I'm seven years wiser, than I was twenty-five years ago.
[05:11.93]I stop to play with this cat on the footpath, and he's cleaning his head with his paw.
[05:19.80]And I know that you're gone so I'm moving on, still I know that you're worth mourning for.
[05:29.35]And I'm feeling just fine but I'm taking my time, cause I know that you're worth mourning for.
