Story Behind the Song
The first and third parts are about the end of a relationship, which happend to be in the Seattle area. In the middle is a pause to realize the past present and future.
Lyrics
In a city cold and rainy, near the season of November, they lost me by the river, they lost me by the river. Gray sidewalks glow, dead flowers in the snow, and they sky looked through my eyes, but my eyes had none to show. Now I’m sitting in a dark room, waiting, for the day to begin.
When I was a boy, room was filled with toys, everyone’s happy. Now those days are gone, no one’s heard this song, no one is laughing. Soon the times will change, everyone will age, turn back the story.
Once there was a way, a way, a way. Now there is no way, no way, no way. Thinking of summer days, spring time, and winter. The flowers of those days would blossom and wither away. Those flowers in her hair as she walks out through the door.
