lyrics
I’ve been harboring fugitives
I’ve been wondering how to live
In a station so opposite
To the world I thought I was in
All the time that I’ve been away
Weary wanderer sleepless stray
It’s no wonder we’re wanting more
Miracle we that we came this far
All this love is still here
But how could we not feel
The gravity of years
And my criminal career
I still see your shade everywhere
From Olympia to Jaisalmer
I will carry you in my heart
As I did from the very start
All this love is still here
But how could we not feel
The gravity of years
And my criminal career
I just want to see you open
Unafraid and golden
Like I’ve always known you to be
Believe me
All this love is still here
But how could we not feel
The gravity of years
And my criminal career

Musical maturity doesn't have to mean stodgy rehashed tunes. Nickel Creek gets ever more innovative with time. Pay attention, kids! This is how you do it right. twighlightprowler

It takes a Glen Phillips penned Toad backed tune to so enigmatically describe every other breakup you've had.
This just never gets old.
