Song lyrics
Lately i've been thinking 
Lately i've been dreaming with you 
I'm so resistent to this type of thinking
Oh now it's shining through

I was alone for the last time 
before my nights' vacation with you
alive from the first now i'm denied
by the ghost of you

Oh you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me 
Please 

I know there's little use in crying 
It's more wide awake and dying than i'm used to 
I thought we'd walk these streets together 
Now i'm hoping that I'll never have to meet you 
Step aside from all this anger 
And somewhere in between I can feel you 
Ask me should we try again 
I'm thinking no  yeah
It's not what i believe in 
It's not what i believe in 

Oh, Won't you take yourself a photograph and laugh at me 
please 
you make yourself a photograph and laugh at me 
please 

No I, wanna taste your love 
No I...no I
No I, just wanna taste your love 
Oh, no I

Standing in your shoes I turn 
and now you're standing bare in my doorway
I only wish that I had been prepared
I'm gonna have to go along with your way

Just take the plastic camera out
It's in the pants you borrowed in the driveway
Alive from the first now i'm denied by the ghost of you

make yourself a photograph & laugh at me please
yeah make yourself a photograph & laugh at me please
no i  want a taste of  love no i  
i was alive from the first  now i'm denied by the ghost of you

It sounds like a song that would give goosebumps...! The lyrics are more than decent, but I've never heard the song before.

I'm just a little unsure as to the meaning...

Is he singing about a perfect love gone sour...
like, is he regretting the decision to break up, or whatever, but then, in the end, decides its for the best?
Enlighten me!!

This was the first song I ever heard of Howie's...like 5 years ago or something like that when he was opening up for someone and it got me hooked on him.

I don't really get this song either. It's pretty, haunting kind of, but I don't understand it. Anyone care to explain what they think?

One of the best song of Howie Day. Fell in love with it right away when I first heard it. The first song I heard with Howie was Collide and that song and this one is two of the best song I've ever heard
