lyrics

A NOTE AROUND A ROCK

I wrote a note
Wrapped it around a rock
Then threw it through
The windows of your mind

I made mistakes
Cast them all to the wind
Which blew in
Through the doorway left behind

I hope you had the chance to read it
I hope you had the sense to not go through with it

A memory changed
Received through the static
Just a sign
Through the ether in this place

I don't recall a thing we said now
I don't recall a thing at all, no
I don't recall a thing we said now
I don't recall a thing at all

I wrote a note
Wrapped it around a rock
Then I threw it through
The windows of your mind

I hope you had the time to read it
I hope you had the sense
To not go back to that hunting ground
I hope you had the time to read it
Don't make the same mistakes

I don't recall a thing we said now
I don't recall a thing at all, no
I don't recall a thing we said now
I don't recall a thing at all

I wrote a note around a rock
I hope you had the chance
I wrote a note around a rock

I hope you had the chance to read it
Don't make the same mistakes
