lyrics

in the parking structure
you held my hand
the scary guy w/the bongos was trying to stand
but we'd escape him
we'd be alright
against the odds we'd survive this big city night
around two corners
+ up two ramps
until our faces were level w/all the streetlamps
i joked about it
you smiled a crack
i stared so long @ you but i can't bring that memory back

the car was nowhere
you held your breath
echoes of bongoman's voice singing songs of our death
zapped all around us
+ closer still
you were walking faster, i was trying to keep up until
around the corner
+ down one flight
"i swear we parked it there"
you said + i knew you were right
+ you were scared then
+ so was i
but now your frightened eyes, i can't see them hard as i try

why didn't i take a picture
3 4 years later and i
can't even
i can't
you got a face that's so hard to conjure
or @ least i think you did but
i can't
i can't even
why didn't i take your picture then?!

you had a migraine +
i had my bad knee
we got to talking + things turned to andrew quickly
you blamed him for this
i called you mad
you went on ranting until i compared you to my dad
and you were cornered
and you backed down
a freezing wind made its way through our concrete downtown
your nabob tongue +
your mint shampoo
the sound of bongos yeah
but just no mental image of you
