i never took the time to remind you of how
we met one night on queen street
the three of you were drunk and you sat on a curb
and you slurred a compliment to me
we sat there talking shit at the people that passed
we bussed halfway up queen st
we hid up in my room at the YMCA
and got high till we fell asleep
fell asleep
you fell asleep for good
fell asleep
and with a girl named laura we drank a lot of bourbon
and didn’t mind the scenery
of sitting in the graveyard and falling over drunk
and sleeping there an hour or three
we walked out from the city to save on the change
we borrowed from your family
to get a bit of weed in the garden of eden
we showed up at someone’s party
i have spent a lot of time
arranging how i’d say i’m sorry
i don’t know if you did the same
maybe it’s not too late
maybe i’ll see you next life around
but i’m not gonna hold my breath
‘cause there’s no point in us both being dead.
