It's only been a week
The rush of being home and rapid fading
I fell into a call
But I was missing all that time in England

I send the aimless sleep
Unfettered by the help of transportation
To knock on windows where
A friend no longer live I had forgotten

And everywhere I go
There's always something to remind me
Of another place and time
Where love had traveled far and found me
We stayed outside til two
Waiting for the light to come back
I didn't talk I knew
Until you asked what I was thinking
Until you asked what I was thinking

Brave men tell the truth
The wise mans tools are analogies and puzzles
The woman holds her tongue
Knowing silence will speak for her
Brave men tell the truth
The wise mans tools are analogies and puzzles
The woman holds her tongue
Knowing silence will speak for her

Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me

So now I'll never know,
As you will only sleep beside me,
And everywhere I go

Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me,
Will remind, will remind, will remind me
