lyrics

You played a song for me
It always seems like things were simple back then
You took your headphones off
And wrapped them ‘round my ears
New voice was sayin’
“I love you, darlin’”
It seemed like your own lips were moving
And I believed them
Lies made honest by good music

I let you build the soundtrack
I wish I hadn’t done that
You claimed and gave those tunes with a reckless abandon
Now even when they’re droning low in some department store
You’re there insisting the songs are yours

Caught in the grocery line
Bottle of wine pressed against my chest
The faintest melody floating over head
Takes me to August
When we weren’t speaking
Through your closed door I could hear Mt Eerie
He said what you needed
That you were leaving

I let you build the soundtrack
I wish I hadn’t done that
You claimed and gave those tunes with a reckless abandon
Now even when they’re droning low in some department store
You’re there insisting the songs are yours

With your box of compact discs
You drove off to our greatest hits
Pedaling that playlist to some other fool
And I still know all the words
I don’t recite them cause it hurts
It still hurts

I let you build the soundtrack
I wish I hadn’t done that
You claimed and gave those tunes with a reckless, a reckless abandon
Now even when they’re droning low in some department store
You’re there insisting the songs are yours
Yours
