    Story Behind the Song
    sometimes people in your band quit...

    Lyrics
    You were like a window in the rain
    Clarity always so restrained
    But I always knew there was something there
    And even though it never lasts I’m still painting pictures on the glass for you
    Just in case the message might get through
    From the fog’s leftover residue
    Reflecting sunlight in mid-june

    And though I’m not one to quit
    I know when to walk away
    So what highway do I take
    To watch the miles fall away?

    You were like a tired metaphor
    No less true than before
    And it wasn’t that anything had changed
    But it seems the easier it gets to say
    The faster all its meaning goes away
    And what a part perception plays
    When you trade in all your rainy days
    For one tsunami wave

    You were a long conversation on a short winter day
    You were like a run-on sentence when there’s nothing left to say
    You were something I had lost that wasn’t in the lost and found
    You were like a foreign film without the subtitles or sound

    And though I’m not one to quit
    I know when to walk away
    So what highway do I take
    To watch the miles fall away?
