Lyrics of the Day

Nov 22, 2006 01:01


This is a Norwegian band I love very much.  Thats why the lyrics might seem a little odd.  A pen pal friend of mine in college sent a cassette with this song on it, and when I went to Norway I bought the CD.  Whenever I listen to the songs from this CD, it always reminds me of driving down to Nicolais' families summer house down in Kristiansund for the weekend.  It was a warm sleepy drive, I was listening to a mix tape I made from his sisters music collection, dozing off.  I remember the color of the sun, reflecting off the fields.  Oh how I long to visit again.

Waste of Time
      -The September When

She sat almost there in the corner of my eye
A long time ago
Weaving up stories about what I should know
And I liked it so
More of a meaning that couldn't be true
I didn't understand
It's always a good night for sleeping with you
and go back in time

OK?
Yeah Ok

Imagine pictures from when we were young suddenly they appear
I am amazed by the clarified sound
So soft in my ear
You say that I'm too concerned about
What is forever gone
I must admit that the chances I have
To get it back is none

It's a waste of time

I know the place up on the top
We get there in no time
We go up to be there forever
At least inside of our minds
You say that I'm too concerned about
What is forever gone
I must admit that the chances I have
to get it all back is none

It's a waste of time

We don't have to build a garden of delight
There's no such garden in sight
Tonight I need you safely by my side
Sleep tight tonight
