Days Gone By

from Beyond My Showerhead by Tommy DiMeo

/

lyrics

I’m sitting in a bathtub
Water's falling from the showerhead
I feel thumping in my head
And I can't get you out my head

Now I'm laying on a bathroom floor
Wishing I could muster more
Memories of a girl I knew
I was so in love with you

And I wonder where you'd go
When you'd escape my eyes' detection
Felt my life was like a show
You had me praying for the season where the writers point you my direction

(It's too late) Til the day you die
I'll hear voices in my head (you're living in these days gone by)
Always wonderin' why
There are things we left unsaid
And so I'll wonder, til you're dead

Sometimes I hate the good times
She's got those little brown eyes
Reminds me most our glory days are gone

But there's a light inside them
It's just enough, don't ever hide them
Eyes kept me from letting go
If only I could know what lies behind them

I used to wonder where you'd go
Just to escape all my affection
One day I had to let it go
To turn and walk my own direction

It seems
I found myself behind the doors
I'd opened up in years before
When you're what I was looking for

Search for gold in puddles, all you'll find is your reflection
I only miss what I need most
You and my homebound train connections

(It's too late) Til the day you die
I'll hear voices in my head (you're living in these days gone by)
Always wonderin' why
There are things we left unsaid
And so I'll wonder, til you're dead

I wish she'd fallen off her pedestal, cause I'd have caught her
Can't swim to shore, can't even drown, I'm treading water
Out here alone it's where my twisted soul believes I ought to be

Listened to scars, and you were right, I shouldn't ever doubt you
But must you call I don't need more reasons to think about you
I've got a jar, that's full of memories, I keep beside my bed

So I think
It's too late
I’ll hear voices in my head
Always wonderin' why
There are things we left unsaid
‘Til the day you die
I’m living in these days gone by
