Lyrics

Oil tankers in the National Guard
I came to meet you, my car died in your yard
Why turn the key?
There's so much here to see
These are my memories
Of precious places, precious things
That were meaningless before
We'd seen them together
Old hinges squeaking in the rain
That hotel by the highway where we stayed
There's something every hour
Who needs the Eiffel Tower?
When we've got memories
Of precious places, precious things
That were meaningless before
We'd seen them together
The pen, the car
The paint, the pier
The moon and star
The message clear
Liberty raised her hand to us
As if to say "It's OK, live today, live today"
I said "Don't leave me, don't break the tide"
Then I left you and time went rolling by
And here's what I can't stand
I know that every landmark
Triggers memories
Of stupid places and silly things
That were meaningless before
We'd seen them together
Were meaningless before
We'd seen them together
They were meaningless before
We'd seen them together
