lyrics
Wearin' it down to the grooves, a lornful love song
And there's solace in the sorrow of the words
Now I'm waiting by my window watching leaves
Fall from the trees
And I'm taking all the time I need
In knowing what's been heard
Nothin' much better to do but listen to this tune
And let melancholy mold me into something
That I never thought I'd be
But it just ain't up to me
'Cause my misery is muted by the speakers
There's some songs that I can't handle hearing anymore
It's not that I don't dig 'em, that's for sure
They just remind me of someone I used to know
But this new song knows no history of me and her
Though it's strange how it still somehow seems
Familiar
We're all part of the fray in fearing what we've lost
And the loveliness that's all around evades us
Understand that underneath this gloom
there's room to gratify
When our feelings find it hard to hit the surface
Wearing it down to the grooves.
