lyrics

HALF-LIFE

We make the effort to hook up
Occasionally
And we'd wander the cafes
And galleries
Make light of the shadows that we see
Splash in the puddles
And go Dutch on the teas

And we'd stroll
Through Soho
Though we know
There's nowhere to go
For us - together
For us - no, never
For us - no, never again

Of course, I'd never admit it
But, yes, I suppose I still love you
(There, you see, I just did it)
But in a different way than I used to

The crowds of couples kissing
In the bazaars
In theatres, restaurants,
Bus stops and bars
Perhaps they'll be lucky and float up to the stars
I hope they're lucky and not end up where we are

And we stare
In shop panes clear
You're right there
I'm wrong here
Look at us - together
Look at us - no, never
Look at us - no, never again

I'm too shy to convey it
But, yes, I suppose I love you
(I'd have to be drunk to say it)
But not as completely as I used to

Composed by Paul Hamilton & Dave Pope

Gener's Gone: The Final Demo Recordings of Gene Ween (2009-2011)
by Aaron Freeman

This is a low-level slow-burning marvel of almost nonchalant brilliance. Often, one finds beneath all the FX and gloss there's no song at all. Aaron Freeman has an ocean of depth beneath the surface. smokingantrecords
