One of the last songs I wrote for the band. For Leslie.
lyrics
Long are the days that elasticize
They bring me back to you
You in the mud sinking deeper while
We try to find the truth / of our youth
The stakes are getting high
She never learned to lie
Does it matter anyway
She's got herself a ride
Calm in this state of emotions
So much virility in you
All is grey around your silhouette
Far beneath the ground is glued / got no clues
The stakes are getting high
She never learned to lie
Does it matter anyway
She's got herself a ride
Ride / she's got herself a ride
Sometimes frozen somewhat older now
And somehow I'm still with you
You're on my mind and you are in the dust
Excuse us we're just passing through / after you
The stakes are getting high
She never learned to lie
Does it matter anyway
She's got herself a ride
Ride / she's got herself a ride
