I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything With a graveyard tan an' carrying a cross It doesn't remind me of anything I like studying faces in a parking lot 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything I like travelin' backwards in the fog 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus] The things that I've loved, things that I've lost Things I've held sacred that I've dropped I won't lie no more you can bet I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget
I like gypsy moths and radio talk 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything I like gospel music and canned applause 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything I like colorful clothing in the sun 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything I like hammering nails, and speaking in tongues 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
[Chorus] The things that I've loved, things that I've lost Things I've held sacred that I've dropped I won't lie no more you can bet I don't want to learn what I'll need...
Bend and shape me, I love the way you are Slow and sweetly, like never before Calm and sleeping, we won't stir up the past So discreetly, we won't look back
[Chorus] The things that I've loved, things that I've lost Things I've held sacred that I've dropped I won't lie no more you can bet Don't want to learn what I'll need...
I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars 'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything I like playing in the sand what's mine is ours If it doesn't remind me of anything
