lyrics

It was two weeks and we were lovers
Three months and left for others
Babe, I've been dying for so many years
Except now I have the comfort
Of Bourbon to hold above her
And I've been calling on all my petty fears

(chorus)
Maybe there's a place another time another day
Where we will find the trace of where we left off our last page
and the words say
"I love you"

I've been writing love letters
Address marked return to sender
And these are the only words you'll ever hear
They say, "Remember how we watched the writer
The night we walked downtown together and
I was too afraid to make a move.
We saw the parks this city over
Making laughs and punching shoulders
And me holding tightly onto you
Then the last night before you left me
Back arched, arms out, lookin' lovely oh
What were you thinking as I gazed at you?"

Was it?

(chorus)

It was two weeks and we were lovers
Three months and left for others
Babe, I'm still holding on to every kiss
We don't have time for eachother
You go your way and I'll recover
But I'll always be haunted by your perfume

(chorus)

"I love you"
