about

Written back in 1991 while playing in Pet Clarke, an L.A. Band.

lyrics

You and I, let's go back.
1949 - Irene and Jack.
Then to the time when I was born.
Before these shoes were ever worn.

Then we go away.
Then we go away.
Then we go away.
Then we go away.

You and I, we grew up.
We fought it all the way.
We screwed up.
From the back seat of a car.
To the front seat in a maze.
My father said it was just a phase -
just a craze.

Then we go away.
Then we go away.
Then we go away.
Then we go away.

And in the mean time, I traveled all of the world.
And the things that I've seen - oh the things that I've seen.
So I packed them all up. I put them in my bag.
And I put the bag in my closet.
Lifetimes of pain. Lifetimes of pain. Lifetimes of pain.

Then we go away.
Then we go away.

And the people that we love go away. And our houses and our cars.... and our dogs and our cats. Yes, they all go away.

So, when it's time for me to go I think I'll take a train.
Oh, I don't want to go away.

Why don't you.

You can do it. Just close the door behind you...
