Punk Rock Love Song

from Greetings Farewell by Spoon Canoe

lyrics

I found you back when I was 16 years old
Dumb and young but I was feeling rather bold
Slid on our skates and then we slid out into the cold
Our story one that no one could’ve foretold

From that point on
Our love was up and down and back and forth
From afar
Reminiscent of a rollercoaster
All that turbulence a side-effect of getting older
Just two adolescents growing alongside each other

My darling, my flower
You’re the only one with power over me
Guess I’m not over you
There’s still so much left for us to do
We could roam the streets of Londontown
Maybe make a few bucks
We’ll never settle down
I guess I’m not over you
Hope you’re not over me
Our existences they resonate so harmoniously

Seven years later
But my heart still beats the same way
However since we split it’s off
Need to defibrillate
I’m feeling empty like a conference room on Saturday
As long as I’m up here I’m fucking helpless anyway

My darling, my flower
You’re the only one with power over me
Guess I’m not over you
There’s still so much left for us to do
We could get high in Hawaii
Down on the beach
Hold hands, watch the sun set under the sea
I guess I’m not over you
Hope you’re not over me
Our existences they resonate so harmoniously

I keep on thinking
I’ll see you in other people
But I don’t
I end up seeing deeper inside of my own head
The feelings sink in
They fade away quicker than you might think
I’m longing for a moment
Just longing for a moment

I’m sick of double dealing
It just feels more like stealing
Your love is so appealing
One hit will get me reeling
Out of control

My darling, my flower
You’re the only one with power over me
Guess I’m not over you
There’s still so much left for us to do
My darling, my flower
You’re the only one with power over me
Guess I’m not over you
There’s still so much left for us to do
