Time Again Songtext
von Rhett Miller

I am much too young and able for my final song to sing
For the scraps beneath your table from you now for anything
There′s a road stretched out ahead of me that I still wanna run
Winding into darker places past the setting sun

I was smiling through a broken nose on the day when I came in
Pretty girls in dirty clothes town to town and time again
Stack up all your souvenirs and polish them until they shine
I'll be kicking dust up but I′ll think of you from time to time


You cast a pretty shadow I was cool there for a while
I didn't think I'd miss you more and more with every mile
Tonight I will be lonely in the arms of someone else
I′m picturing you now that′s how I'm punishing myself

Whispering through crooked teeth when the morning sun sneaks in
Pretty girls in messy sheets town to town and time again
None of them are you they are just keepsakes that I left behind
I′ll be chasing shadows but I'll think of you from time to time

I was smiling through a broken nose on the day when I came in
Pretty girls in dirty clothes town to town and time again
Stack up all your souvenirs and polish them until they shine
I′ll be kicking dust up but I'll think of you
