Lyrics

You and I put up a tent on the oak creek
Close to the vagabond family
We [lost] on some foreign food poisoning
On my deathbed you were still talking to me

It makes me sad that
We aren’t as close
But [/that] dying with you just goes to show
I’ve put us through [a lot]

And it’s hard to admit
But I’m finally brave enough
Brave enough to say it

[Cos][/send] in my flashbacks[/send my flesh back]
You were a recurring face[/theme][/to a recurring thing]

[I] Whispered out your name
Thinking that you would hear me

Cos if they find my
Body [come morning]
Somehow[/so how] I just wanted you to know that you were the only one
who really knew me

You and I[/I’ve] talked to the boy with the mandolin
Right before our legs began to give in
Dying without faith in anything
If you have no God then you cannot sin

It makes me sad that we aren’t as close
But dying with you just goes to show
I put us through [a lot]
and it’s hard to admit

But I’m finally brave enough, brave enough to say it

Cos in my flashbacks you were[/send my flesh back to] a re-occurring theme[/face][/thing]
I’ve whispered out your name thinking that you would hear me

Cos if they find my body [come morning]
somehow I just wanted you to know
you were the only one
who really knew me

you really knew me
you really knew me

Put us through [a lot]
Put us through [a lot]


This song appears as track 6 on Courtney’s third album For One I Knew
