Lyrics
MEMOIR
· You thought you could stay up for awhile and write about it
· You thought you could stay new
· You thought you could transform everything that you touched
· You like to think it through
· You thought you could sell pineapples to oranges
· and poetry, too
· You thought the plan was simple when you started
· before it became true
· Is this love?
· You thought you checked your catalogue of smiles
· to find the right one to show them
· You thought the feeling would stay young
· and you'd never crawl out of it
· You said you like to spin in circles
· until you fall down
· but you tell all your friends you liked to spin in circles
· and you never fell down
· Is this love?
· And every single passage
· leads back to this
· It's the memory, it's the question
· that never leaves my head
· Is this love?
