Oh, you're always in the back of my mind .
nothing ever changes,
oh, I wish to god it did
just another drink and you'll be gone.
2 a.m. raining again.
i saw you making faces in the river.
only me, down by the quay.
just a sad reflection that I give you.
oh, I thought time would burn it.
burn it down to the ground.
just a little breeze and you'll be strong
driving home, all on my own.
just a passenger in all that we lost
satisfy, oh, lord don't deny,
I see your face in the everything that's near 'cause.
oh, you were always in the back of my mind
oh, I have all the memories,
the winter of '82.
when down upon the ice you saw me melt.
washed up on the rocks again,
oh, don't you know that it's so d*** hot
and the things you do.
oh I won't ever learn.
oh I won't ever learn.
oh, you were always in the back of my mind.
nothing ever changes,
oh, I wish to god it did
just another drink and you'll be gone.
2 a.m. raining again.
i saw you making faces in the river.
