of Montreal
Requiem For O.M.M.
When I met you, I was just a kid
Hadn't built up my defenses
So I gave my heart completely, Vaseline over the lenses
Memories don't go away, I remember every day
I never ever stop wondering
Wondering if you still think of us
I don't need a photograph, 'cause you've never left my mind
No you've never left my mind
I remember feeling like a ship
Whose captain was too drunk to steer
And you watched as I was sinking
Waving sadly from the pier
It's such a burden to carry 'round
The vestiges of dead dreams
And I don't want to make a wake out of my life
I just had to let you go
