Half a mind lyrics

Artist  : Verve pipe 
Song : Half a mind
 
Sometimes I wish we had a short term memory just
enough to recognize each other’s face

It would be the same old stories but you’re
hanging onto every single word I have to say

And to the world I’m not that clever but you
would stay with me forever

I’d keep your friends from reminding, reminding
you to


Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you
had half a mind

I’d tell you every day’s your birthday and every
gift I bring could be the same

Or how I stood beside you at a shotgun wedding
and the child we once would love but never came

Hearing stories that were never you would stay
with me forever


But I’d forget to make money and you’d forget to


Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you
had half a mind (how vulnerable you are)

Write a note to remind you you would if you had
half a mind (how effortless to stay together)


For these ties you may have severed now you’ll
stay with me forever


And so you write on your forehead, or better yet
you engrave

So when you look in the mirror, well you won’t
forget to


Save yourself, leave me behind you would if you
had half a mind (how vulnerable you are)

Write a note to remind you you would if you had
half a mind (how effortless to stay together)


If we had no memory whatsoever we would stay
right here forever
