Intro : (3x) I put on that sweater you gave me I woke up in the kitchen a few minutes later I didn't know how I had gotten there Did you guide me I didn't make it to your funeral I didn't want ritual nor resign I just wanted to hold hands with J.P and Mary-Jo But I couldn't conjure tears We're too good for stupid angels Blackness held its breath beside me And burned the air till it was gone Till it was gone Till it was gone   (3x)     (3x)   Couldn't pay my respects to a dead man Your life was much more to me And I chased away with sticks and stones But that rage kept following me Following Me Following Me So lost I was asleep in the palms of your hand In dreams we were happy and safe I can't comprehend the ways I miss you They come to light in my mistakes In my mistakes In my mistakes Now I'm travelling down Tacoma way And the world turns in slow motion It's the twilight of our old home And I'm still in love with you Oh here on South Tacoma way We've memories for matinees And the tears come warm and heavy And the cross streets bare your name And the cross streets bare your name.

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque la douleur d'une perte et les souvenirs qui s'accrochent, même dans la tristesse. Le narrateur se souvient d'une personne chère, partageant des moments simples mais précieux, comme se tenir la main. Malgré l'absence et la difficulté d'éprouver des émotions, il ressent toujours une connexion profonde et persistante. On parle également de regrets de ne pas avoir pu rendre hommage à cette personne, tandis que des souvenirs resurgissent à travers des erreurs passées. L'atmosphère de la chanson semble être teintée de nostalgie, avec des images fortes d'un lieu chargé de mémoire, où l'amour reste omniprésent.
