[Verse]
My conEfusion corner commuters are cursing the cAold away
As DeEcember tries to dissemble the length of their wAorking day
And they bEite their mitts off to show me transfers, depAosit change
And I cEan't stop finding your face in their faces, all rAearranged
And aBngry like you B/Cnever were
[Chorus]
And I eEase us back into traffic
ADusk comes on and I wonder
EWhy I'm always remembering yAou
At civil tE5wilightE/Eb C#5 B5
[Verse]
For the mEost part I think about golfing and constantly cAalculate
All the sEeconds left in the minutes, and so on, etcAetera
Or recEite the names of provinces and Hollywood aActors;
Oh, OnEtario, oh, Jennifer Jason Leigh A
BThis part of the B/Cday bewilders me
[Chorus]
EStreets slow down and ice over,
ADusk comes on and I struggle
To sEtop, to stop, to stop thinking of yAou
At civil tE5wilightE/Eb C#5 B5
[Bridge]
F#mHey, every other hour I G#mpass that house,
Where you tAold me that you hBad to B/Cgo
F#mI wonder if the landlord has fG#mixed the crack,
That I sAtared at, instead of sBtaring B/Cback
[Chorus]
At Eyou. My chance to say something
ASeemed so brief but it wasn't
ENow I know I had plenty of tAime
Between the sEunset and certified darkness
ADusk comes on and I follow
The exhEaust from memory up to the eAnd
