Only in the Past - The Be Good Tanyas

Run away to the seashore it doesn’t matter anymore

Doesn’t matter anymore

Words dry up and fly away with the passing of the days

Eventually you just let the stone fall

Chorus:

I dreamed that I saw you you were down at the corner store

You were looking through magazines and you flew out the door

I was trying to wave to you but you wouldn’t wave back

Now you know I understand you’re with me only in the past

Only in the past

My palms are not open they’re closed they’re closed

My palms are not open they’re closed they’re closed

(Chorus)

Colours streak the sky we laugh and we cry

And we dance in the cool grass with the

Fireflies

And we dance in the cool grass sunset birds

Sweet sweet music swallow our words

You set sail and you left this town

Run away, run away, you’re so far from me now

So far from me now

(Chorus)

(Fade out)
