Jeremy Lyrics

We were young like the future, we were young and always wrong We were young like our country, learning old ways to be young Random driving around with you in my dilapidated car Like Isadora Duncan II in impossibly long white scarves
Autumn leaves, diaries, Tennessee and Jeremy Suddenly, willow trees, memories of Jeremy
Like a Galapagos turtle, we grow old and stay that way Build a nest in the sand dunes, lay our eggs and walk away I was writing our dreams down, making maps of an unseen plane And I noticed anomalies that you'd rather not see explained
Autumn leaves, diaries, Tennessee and Jeremy Suddenly, willow trees, memories of Jeremy
We drove, canopy down, in the scalding rain on the one day we were young The house we bought was really a lake, otters scampered down the halls There were whirlpools in the floor and sails You're alone and it's over, you're alone with your gun You're alone from now on you're all alone and you're not young
