I wake up and count the days since you've been gone
I go out and make believe you won't be gone too long
we did everything, we'll miss it again
on the seat and I watch the whole world rolling by

It only takes a moment for the show to begin
a big dog walking a man, got a big bag to fill
Cha Cha's on the corner drinking her gin
not a worry in the world until we get to the end

Always did your, always did your best, you said
I haven't smoked in years, but I still want a cigarette
all the things and all the ways we lived
a park bench by the lake the first time we got lit

It only takes a moment for the show to begin
open up the curtains, and the two of us fell in
woke up at the bus stop, got to let more people in
I wish I could get back to that old way again, yeah

Sometimes when I think about us
just looking at these photographs
but I don't want to get you out of my head
I wish that I could bring you back
you know, I want you back

I wake up, count the days since you've been gone
I go out and make believe you won't be gone too long
I run up and catch the bus, almost miss it again
a window seat, and I watch the whole world rolling by

Sometimes when I'm thinking about us
looking at some photograph
if only I could get you out of my head
I wish that I could bring you back

I feel like my head's on fire
and nothing can stop you
I feel like I'm folding up
I'm taking the long way
but one day the fire goes out
you're staring at nothing
the smoke doesn't wake you up
forever is nothing

I feel like my head's on fire
and nothing can stop me
I'm falling and falling up
but I feel like I'm frozen
but one day the fire goes out
remember the nothing
remember the nothing
but forever is nothing, yeah
