[00:15.041]To celebrate undying faith
[00:18.065]We're gathered here like drifted wrecks
[00:20.835]for a late September wedding
[00:24.146]October breathing down our necks
[00:27.618]And I knew this town in another time
[00:31.099]I knew this town a younger man
[00:34.104]With the world in my hip pocket
[00:37.850]and a subway token in my hand...
[00:47.627]You got to me
[00:53.942]And they got candle light and a reggae band
[00:58.631]Champagne by the bucket load
[01:01.976]Limos lined up down the curb
[01:04.977]to take us where we need to go
[01:07.939]And I need to go somewhere I've been
[01:11.706]to find the place I lost the trail
[01:15.166]Way back then, so long ago
[01:18.769]I don't suppose you even know you got to me
[01:25.518]Brought all this empty down on top of me
[01:34.908]You got to me
[01:48.852]We danced between the snowflakes falling
[01:53.402]tripping on the cobblestones
[01:55.550]and the trolley tracks, we had it all then
[01:59.400]Christmas break, your roommates gone
[02:02.796]We stoked the fire and let it burn
[02:05.697]til the embers glowed in the morning light
[02:09.133]Trust in the tangle of skin on skin
[02:12.860]I've not known quite that feeling since you got to me
[02:20.390]Brought all this empty down on top of me
[02:26.767]I didn't know that we were not to be
[02:32.471]but I know a thing or two now
[02:50.461]The wedding party's raging yet
[02:52.417]how the old and desperate misbehave
[02:56.572]The limo smells like cocaine sweat
[03:00.275]cheap cologne and aftershave
[03:02.868]It's gotta be one of these row house doors
[03:07.120]I knew the number long ago
[03:09.845]I'll step out on the curb
[03:12.665]and tell the driver "just go on and go"
[03:16.772]And you got to me
[03:20.742]Brought all this empty down on top of me
[03:27.608]I didn't know now that we were not to be
[03:33.491]but I know a thing or two now
[04:04.688]The paper boy wants a smoke
[04:08.233]Leans his bike against a tree
[04:11.696]And he's tired and cold and broke
[04:14.186]and he don't know what to make of me
[04:18.012]Standing here in my three piece suit
[04:20.999]Standing here just like I am
[04:24.372]With my vest unbuttoned and my necktie loose
[04:28.193]Impervious to all abuse
[04:30.778]You got to me
[04:35.103]Brought all this empty down on top of me
[04:41.838]Off on a thousand dollar odyssey
[04:47.743]and I know a thing or two now
