LyricMeaning

Basket
Dan Mangan

We are young

We have years ahead maybe

We might fall in love

Fall apart

Fall apart

Before it ends

Well we should try to start

So I'll go but I'm telling you I don't wanna go

Could be stuck here and happy

So there's a puzzle I work on endlessly

And I've got the sides and all the corners

But there's a space

Yeah there's a space

Lost some pieces I can't replace

So I'll be but I'm telling you I don't wanna be

Just a wasted puzzle piece

We are old

And our son took the dog away

And fair enough, guess we're tired all the time

All the time

And you know dogs they need ample time outside

So I'll stay but I'm telling you I don't, I don't wanna stay

So I'll brace myself against the wall and hope to God that I don't fall

My bones are worn, my hip won't hold

I used to be so young, how did I get so old?

Won't you take my cane and hold my hand

You're holding onto all I have

Just a basket full of memories

And I am losing more each day it seems

But if I can make it to the street

I'll steal a car or a bike whatever there is to steal

And it might get cold I just don't care

I'm going 'til I'm getting there

I'll ride my steed all through this town

'Til I have looked and I have found

Your peaceful memory

Won't you return to me?

Won't you return to me?
