I prefer to be alone when you’re not around
Sometimes when I speak, I can’t stand the sound
Of the voice. This great big destructive machine
That takes too much time to say what it means.

It’s a memory of mine that I’m watching for a moment
I’m distracted just a bit by something less important
I’m here for the part of the day that I crave
I have caffeine in my system makes me feel brave
The chill in the air is exactly what I want
And with the sun on my face
And my eyes tightly shut
It’s important for me to remember these things
It’s important for me to remember these things

Absinthe and sex; black garters; cheap wine
A hotel in Prague; a moment in time
We were hungry and scary and so much in love
We laugh with each other as we push and we shove
Absinthe and sex; black garters; cheap wine
A hotel in Prague; a moment in time
We were hungry and scary and so much in love
We laugh with each other as we push and we shove

That was the first time I really caught your eye
In the small italian shop with the coffee that you liked
And when our eyes met I couldn’t look away
My mouth opened to speak but there wasn’t much to say
I was frozen, transfixed, by the way that you looked
Then you grabbed me and pulled me into a small nook
Where we kissed like we had never tasted lips before
And I still wanted more… I still wanted more
I’m frightened of what these words might bring
But it’s important for me to remember these things
I’m frightened of what these words might bring
But it’s important for me to remember these things

You’re too far away for this to make sense
I feel in my heart every mile of distance
I don’t want him to stop because I know what that means
The song will be over and so will you and me

music can be the most painful part of memories
