    Story Behind the Song
    Chuck wrote the music and lyrics for this song in mid 1999 after being challenged by a friend to write a love song without the word 'love' in it. He recorded it the following year in the sweltering heat of an Alberta summer, in his cramped flat below his crazy neighbour. (If you listen closely, you can hear her stomping.) He then asked Jamie to sing something haunting between the verses, which she did. The guest guitarist, playing the great solo, is Todd Lefever of The Hollow.

    Lyrics
    You see me, I see you
    In everything, I hold on to your ghost
    These feelings, I'm feeling
    All but one, the one that you wanted most

    I told her, seek shelter
    In familiar places, and things that she held dear
    She listened, not listening
    But heard my words, and heard 'em loud and clear

    Following directions
    One right turn could bring you back right here
    Can't have that, won't have that
    Never could stand to have you near
