Song lyrics
From my boat I can see your house.
And when the lights are on
I can watch you move.
Hear the wind whispering your name.
Twice the encouragement
Of the real you.

Callie, if you really want me to
I can always get you down
If you got the money for me.
Callie, in the summer rain
You will be kept dry, you see,
If you got the money for me.
Making amends for distant wrong
Sincere

You can run away,
Leave your books behind you.
But you should look back twice,
just to be on the safe side.

From my boat I can see your house.
But now the lights are off,
And there is no one home.
You are just like an avalanche,
Cold as I might have guessed.
But at least I'm covered up for now.

In a big big way
I am really small,
I get off my feet
but I'm still distant.
Don't you just love goodbyes?
Don't you just love goodbyes?

Callie, let us get it over with,
I can always get you down,
If you've got the money for me.
Callie, in the summer rain
You will be kept dry, you see,
If you got the money for me.
Most of our lives we try so hard,
to find the time

I won't care for you,
like I'm really supposed to.
There are things I'll do
that could really hurt you.
Don't you just love goodbyes?
Don't you just love goodbyes?
156. Don't you just love goodbyes?
156 Don't you just love goodbyes?
156 Don't you just love goodbyes?
156 Don't you just love goodbyes?
156 Don't you just love goodbyes?
156

I sing this song almost every day .. Lyrics -> the best of the best ;D The first time when I heard this song I thought that "156" is "perfect sex.." But now these numbers 156 are something more.

Okay, so today I decided to download some Mew. I had never heard of them, but saw their name in last.fm somewhere and thought eh what the hell! So this was the second song I downloaded, and the one I fell for.

I am absolutely loving it. It is beautiful, soft.. It calms me down, and I am glad I heard it.
