Why is audiogalaxy being so slooow tonight? It is SO fired if this keeps up.

finally got metro tho...Anna does it again...this song is so potent with imagery that brings stuff back. jeez. this is the other side of everything...and what the end feels like.

"I'm alone.
Sitting in my empty glass
my four walls follow me through my past.
I was on a Paris train
I emerged in London rain
and you were waiting there, swimming through apologies...

I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a soldier sleeping next to me
riding on the met-tro-oh-oh.

Wide smiling as he took my hand
slow, he moved he spoke of wintertime in France
minutes passed with suspicious words
years have passed and still I heard
oh I can see you now
smiling as I pulled away

I remember the letter wrinkled in my hand
' I love you always,' filled my eyes
I remember a night we walked along the seine
riding on the met-tro-oh-oh."

I remember a feeling coming over me
the solider turned and looked away
I remember hating you for loving me
riding on the met-tro-oh-oh.

I'm alone
sitting with my broken glass
my four walls
follow me through my past
Iwas on a paris train
I emerged in London rain
and you were waiting there, swimming through apologies
(sorry)
I remember searching for the perfect words
I was hoping you might change your mind
I remember a solider sleeping next to me
riding on the met-tro-oh-oh."

somehow it makes more sense as the whole package, as many songs do. But sometimes songs can fill in the gap where people have no words for the questions.
