It's seventy miles down to the lake

Where we used to go on summer days

Our bodies lay naked in the grass

Building dreams on broken glass

Oh me, oh my, we're such a mess

Your lips meet mine and the sky turns red

Don't write me letters

Like nothing ever changed

If you want me to stay

Say you never met no one like me

Like they used to say on the TV

And you can have my heart, it's yours for free

But you don't see the fact

I never want it back

And I heard you found somebody new

At a silent retreat, oh that's so you

Oh everything seems to be going your way

And I'm in a band, we're doing okay

Oh me, oh my, I saw your face

Out in the crowd the other day

I read your letters

Like nothing ever changed

And if you feel the same

Say you never met no one like me

Like they used to say on the TV

And you can have my heart, it's yours for free

But you don't see the fact

I never want it back

I never want it back

Oh me, oh my, we're such a mess

Your lips meet mine and the sky turns red

You kept my sweater

Like nothing ever changed

But now it is too late

Say you never met no one like me

Like they used to say on the TV

And you can have my heart, it's yours for free

But you don't see the fact

I never want it back

But you don't see the fact

I never want it back
