Lyrics
0:00Heard you got a job as a mailman
0:03I heard you're playing around in a couple bands
0:07Wish I could come to the show but I understand
0:11Can't just walk in like any other fan
0:15But I always loved the way you play guitar
0:22You've got style no one's doin' it like you are
0:31In many European cities there's a bridge
0:35Where lovers put locks on the rails
0:38And throw their keys into the river beneath
0:42We were two such suckers
0:46But the metal weighs down the bearings and the city has to cut the bolts
0:53If our spell wore off maybe it's all their fault
1:02You're a bullseye and I aimed right
1:05I'm a straight shot you're a grand prize
1:09It was young love it was dumb luck
1:13Holding each other so tight we got stuck
1:23I'll miss borrowing your books to read your notes in the margins
1:28The closest I came to reading your mind
1:32The answers to the questions only made more questions
1:36I hope you're never fully satisfied
1:39But I wanted to be there the day you figured it all out
1:46Whoever is I hope they're proud
1:55You're a bullseye and I aimed right
1:58I'm a straight shot you're a grand prize
2:02It was young love it was dumb luck
2:06Holding each other so tight we got stuck
2:33Found some of your stuff at my new house
2:36Packed it on accident when I was moving out
2:39Probably wrong to think of them as your gifts to me
2:43More like victims of my sentimentality
2:48Man it's hard to quit while you're ahead
2:51Letting the best laid plans become empty threats
2:56But I meant every word I said
3:00When I said it
3:03The world that we built meant the world to me
3:10When one world ends the other worlds keep spinning
Heard you got a job as a mailman I heard you're playing around in a couple bands Wish I could come to the show but I understand Can't just walk in like any other fan But I always loved the way you play guitar You've got style no one's doin' it like you are In many European cities there's a bridge Where lovers put locks on the rails And throw their keys into the river beneath We were two such suckers But the metal weighs down the bearings and the city has to cut the bolts If our spell wore off maybe it's all their fault You're a bullseye and I aimed right I'm a straight shot you're a grand prize It was young love it was dumb luck Holding each other so tight we got stuck I'll miss borrowing your books to read your notes in the margins The closest I came to reading your mind The answers to the questions only made more questions I hope you're never fully satisfied But I wanted to be there the day you figured it all out Whoever is I hope they're proud You're a bullseye and I aimed right I'm a straight shot you're a grand prize It was young love it was dumb luck Holding each other so tight we got stuck Found some of your stuff at my new house Packed it on accident when I was moving out Probably wrong to think of them as your gifts to me More like victims of my sentimentality Man it's hard to quit while you're ahead Letting the best laid plans become empty threats But I meant every word I said When I said it The world that we built meant the world to me When one world ends the other worlds keep spinning
