There's nothing like a song that reaches into you messes around for a little bit then pisses off. This song is just a beautiful example of talented musicians at their best. I have seen these guys live twice, once in Adelaide and once in Melbourne and it was such an incredible exprience. Take a minute, read the lyrics, watch the clip.
A beautifully written song. I hope you enjoy. Lyrics are below:
You may tire of me as our December sun is setting
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
No longer easy on the eyes
These wrinkles masterfully disguise
The youthful boy below
who turned your way and saw
Something he was not looking for
Both a beginning and an end
But now he lives inside someone he does not recognize
When he catches his reflection on accident
On the back of a motor bike
With your arms outstretched trying to take flight
Leaving everything behind
But even at our swiftest speed
We couldn't break from the concrete
In the city where we still reside
And I have learned
That even landlocked lovers yearn
For the sea like navy men
'Cause now we say goodnight
From our own separate sides
Like brothers on a hotel bed
You may tire of me as our december sun is setting
'Cause I'm not who I used to be
This is beautiful. Thanks for sharing it.
