Well, Matthew and I walked down to the riverside
From my old apartment at 56 Morton Street
He said something sarcastic about the majestic Jersey skyline
Tosses a rock in the Hudson

And I see, I see
The ripples in the water and I think of that cliché about how everyone affects me
And I affect everyone
Sun gone, world melting...

He says "I grow weary of waiting here. I guess you would know
People they lie to you and f*ck you over and over, and it should not be so"
And I say "I know, I know...but the only way that she can deal with anything is always to go
As far from it as she can get
And yet, and yet, I still miss her

She used to say: "Say what you mean
Say what you mean to say"
He always says that it's nothing

But it was, it was
Something of importance and he couldn't talk about it because
He was afraid
He says "I've made, I've made
Attempts to communicate these issues before and things have stayed the same.
It's like this web we're in."

Say what you mean, now

And he says "the pain, the pain."
I said "well, everybody suffers, man, you think you got a right to complain?
Just look at me..."

The sea, the sea
He calls upon her waters in their holiness to set him free
And take him down
Says "I've found, I've found
My peace of mind here"

And I say "I grow weary of telling you
Can it be that you still don't know?
Things don't have to happen over and over again like this
Unless you think them so"

And he says "I know, I know,
But the only way to love a thing forever is to let it go
I'm glad we met
And yet, and yet, I still think of her"

She used to say:
"Say what you mean
Say what you mean..."
