lyrics

'do doo do do doo' - where'd my words all go?
forgot all of them, so I lied.
the hiccups that I've got - they're not going away anytime soon.
-
now if I remember it right, it was this time last year.
she just had to say her piece that night (rather than fight)
it's funny now but it wasn't at the time.
-
we were bright and promising once (where'd that all go?)
dropped her off in the morning snow; it was time to move on.
but she knew what I was running from
we've been here before.
I'm sorry now but I wasn't at the time.
-
was so nice to know somebody cared at all.
I'm so sorry now
I know you're happy now
and this all means nothing now
-
I always thought I knew what I wanted (and I never really knew)
I always thought I knew what she wanted (and I never really knew)
I always thought that I knew everything
now all the words I say are 'do doo do do doo'
