Long Dead by Now Songtext
von Half Shy

We′d hide under the willow at the end of the block
And play a game of make believe where more than not
We'd end up in the shed
With your hand behind my head

Well I never said a word and maybe that′s the tell
Your Latter Day boyfriend, my own personal hell
Until you moved away
Did you feel anything that day?

For me anymore
For me anymore
For me anymore
Is it me anymore?


If love was going to strike us down
Honey I'd be long dead by now
Honey I'd be long dead by now
If love was going to strike us down
Honey I′d be long dead by now
Honey I′d be long dead by now

You'd come back here every winter at your father′s place
And frown when I would ask you if you'd asked him to stay
"He said it′s for the best."
And I could feel that in my chest

Well I never said a word and maybe that's the tell
That I knew these kind of stories and they never end well
And if you couldn′t stay, could you stop looking that way

At me anymore
At me anymore
At me anymore
Is it me anymore?

And If love was going to strike us down
Honey I'd be long dead by now
Honey I'd be long dead by now
And If love was going to strike us down
Honey I′d be long dead by now
Honey I′d be long dead by now
