I cherish with fondness the day before I met you
Damn extended metaphors, I get carried away
Decorating envelopes for foreplay
Hopefulness is tantamount to hopelessness
Stomping on your fingers as you're clinging on to the abyss

On the back of a natural disaster, fixed with parcel tape
My year in lists
And you must confess that at times like these
And I accept that it's time for a change but not in

I cherish with fondness the day before I met you

Carved in your door with a Stanley knife
So put on every winter coat that you've owned since '98
Do not believe in the new year anymore
