Guster

 Live Sessionography
Adam Gardner guitar, vocals
Ryan Miller guitar, vocals
Brian Rosenworcel percussion

 Live RepRok 2 Version Guest
Michael Corcoran violin

Notes: Ryan used to introduce this song as "the one about a skinny boy from San Antonio whose girlfriend dumped him." The RepRok 2 lyrics are presented here as a seperate version of the song because they reflect changes made by an older and more mature Guster, even if they had some trouble remembering the words when they were performing them. Also, Pasty played the violin, which doesn't hurt the RepRok 2 Version's rep.
Live "Extended Mix" Version Live RepRok 2 Version
I started to go but you wouldn't let me
I tried to explain but the words, they failed me
I drove off that day and the rage and the fear
Knowing the next time I saw you we'd be strangers

No more the times when we would be
No more the days when I could tell you anything
No more the thoughts that we didn't have to say

The butterflies are gone, they've all passed away

Seeing you now, I've seen how you've grown
You moved on with your life, that which I could not allow
The light in your eyes has changed, too
The understanding's gone
You've got to face up to the test
The time is now

No more the times when we would be
No more the days when I could tell you anything
No more the thoughts that we didn't have to say

Could it be things are for the better?
Or could it be things are worse?
All I wanted was someone to listen
To care for my body and trust

I tried to hold on, my mind was in the past
I tried to cry out but you had the last words
You became callous, weren't the one I knew
"It's time to move on now," she said, "now it's time for you"
"It's time to move on now," she said, "now it's time for you"

No more the times when we would be
No more the days when I can tell you anything
No more the thoughts that we didn't have to say

I started to go but you wouldn't let me
I tried to explain but the words, they failed me
I drove off that day and the rage and the fear
Knowing the next time I saw you we'd be strangers

No more the times when we would be
No more the days when I can tell you anything
No more the thoughts that we didn't have to say

Could it be things are for the better?
Or could it be things are worse?
All I needed was someone to listen
To care for my body and trust

I tried to hold on, my mind's in the past
I tried to cry out but you had the last words
Knowing the next time I saw you we'd be strangers

No more the times when we would be
No more the days when I can tell you anything
No more the thoughts that we didn't have to say


Thanks to the always trusty legendary conguero Brian Rosenworcel for clarifying the songwriting credits.
