I Was Trying to Describe You to Someone歌词完整版

I know I haven't seen you for years

I know we left it kind of weird

I kissed you; it wasn't your scene

You disappeared into the atmosphere

We said that we would only be mates

I wish that we could have been

But too late

I'd like to remind you

Of all the things we have in common

But you'd think that I loved you still

I was trying to describe you to a friend

But I couldn't say just what I meant

I tried comparing you to Jane Fonda

Hell - you don't look

Like Jane Fonda at all

I ended up talking about a movie I saw

They used lanterns at night

No electric light

They didn't have washing

Machines or the radio

They built a dam that let lightning in

The wires and the poles

Across the country

Electric was like a young God

Now the farmer could just flick a switch

Black winter mornings lit up with a nod

Religiously milking the cows

The family listened to the radio

I wanted the light

To go around the word

I wanted all farmers to listen to Roosevelt

That's what you look look like to me

That's what I said to my friend that Tuesday

Next time I can afford to go north

I'd like to buy you a tea or a coffee

I don't want to not see you again

I'd like to be your genuine friend

The end
