Story Behind The Song

This song was first drafted on a Sunday afternoon in 2005 with the bass line already in place. The song was originally meant to be a mildly amusing story of something funny happening to the narrator in every verse, and it still sort of is.

Song Description

Lyrics

I am young and I am free
There's plenty more like me
If there's one thing I believe in
It's my love catastrophe
I met a girl from far away
and lead her to my place
But I woke up on the carpet
With her lipstick on my face

Early in the morning
and love was in the air
I told her that I loved her
and I told her that I cared
She said that's the worst lie
That she had ever heard
I felt my warm heart breaking
as she kicked me to the curb

Oh eveytime I feel this way
She spins my head in disarray
I can't stop now cause this is me
I'm in the middle of a love catastrophe
Catastrophe
Catastrophe
Catastrophe oh no no no

Standing on the seaside
Waiting for the tide
I lost my mind in daydreams
and I lost all track of time
I watched the red sun sink
into the middle of the sea
when i looked over my shoulder
at this creature watching me

She smiled in my direction
And the blood went to my head
I felt my heart beat racing
With every word she said
I got myself a taxi
and lead her to the door
But I was out of money so
She held my hand no more

Eveytime I feel this way
She spins my head in disarray
I can't stop now cause this is me
I'm in the middle of a love catastrophe
Catastrophe
That girl and me
Catastrophe oh no no no

Eveytime I feel this way
She spins my head in disarray
I can't stop now cause this is me
I'm in the middle of a love catastrophe
Catastrophe
That girl and me
Catastrophe oh no no no
noooooooooo--
