about

A boy and girl story

lyrics

I planned the greatest escape that I know just to see you as soon as I can see you
A rusty shovel and a band of miners, this should work out just as I planned
Pardon me for saying so but I never thought I'd find anyone who'd try so hard, just to get to me
(I'm trying really hard you know)
I'm sorry to inform you, but I'm terrified of the dark, if you add some streetlights maybe I could come with you

Start breaking ground tomorrow at six a.m.
All I need are my two hands
We'll see you in no time perhaps a month or two
And just one more thing
How much do I love you?

Sorry that you can't join me in my home town, but there's a back-up, a way we can be together
Even though my city's better, I know a passage, well, it needs a little tender love and care
Well I'm not sure how to say this, but I get pretty nervous in little tight spaces oh, whoa oh
(You're getting pretty nervous I know)
If this tunnel were a little wider, I think I could find the courage to come with you back to your world


Start breaking ground tomorrow at six a.m.
All I need are my two hands
We'll see you in no time perhaps a month or two
And just one more thing
How much do I love you?

Well does this little path go under any oceans? It looks a bit leaky to me
(My hands are raw and my eyes don't adjust)
If you could drain the rivers and the streams, lakes and oceans and other wet things I'm sure
(Glad you're waiting for me I'm sure)
I'll come back with you

Start breaking ground tomorrow at six a.m.
All I need are my two hands
We'll see you in no time perhaps a month or two
And just one more thing
How much do I love you?

about

The Left Behinds image

The Left Behinds Calgary, Alberta

A blend of folk, rock and acoustic music this band features good humour and tragic melancholy, often at the same time. Swirling guitars give way to indie drumbeats, and bombastic vocals trade off with gentle folk melodies in a way that is always unpredictable, yet somehow familiar. With a penchant for melodramatic crescendos, The Left Behinds are a band that refuses to be pinned down. ... more
