you can't do
anything for me
okay okay okay
and I hate it a lot
1974 came
rolling by -
were you there when Leeds
United lost 3 in a row
nothing came
together after
you closed the door
and you bludgeoned me
okay okay okay
you broke
me colored me bloody red
and time ticked upwards
two months
passed and the manager
is sacked but with a
hefty price
we walked
hand in hand down
Brighton but now you refuse
to even recognize me
you
bludgeoned me to the brink
of extinction but I came
crawling back -
- but not to
you
okay okay okay
I woke up
breathing finally breathing
the salty
ocean air cleared
my conscience and I forgave
you at Brighton in 1976
but you
don't know that
we haven't talked since
you closed the door
will you
grovel in front of me
will you apologize to me
okay okay okay
I forgive
you and it's about
time you knew - it's 1982
and I hate it a lot
I really appreciate how you used the French meaning of "souvenir" which means to 'remember' with the American souvenir - a memorabilia of a location (or a memory) very clever.
