Valium/Come And Gone
[Verse 1]
I'm not trying to be clever
But you said we'd last forever
Like the birds and bees
But we're really nothing more
Than the future that they sold
In the old movies
Bullet trains, too late
Sonic planes flying straight into the sun
[Chorus]
You have come and gone
Now you're just a number on my telephone
Just another reason for my valium, oh love
Was that what you want?
[Verse 2]
I found that picture in my pocket
Should I keep it, should I lock it, right away from you?
I guess it's just a girl and boy
Another broken polaroid
We threw away too soon
And like a music star
Your life fell apart
Tonight singing your song
You have come and gone
Now you're just a number on my telephone
Just another reason for my valium, oh love
Was that what you want?
Tell me are you feeling bad?
If you heard this on the radio would it make you sad?
Maybe I should fill it up with pretty words, so wrong
You have come and gone
Yes, I guess you were the best but that I can't confess
Unless you want me too
Time, it takes a little while
It tells you that you're fine
Even if it ain't true
You've come and gone
Now you're just another of my saddest songs
Just another reason for my valium, oh no
Was that what you want?
But tell me are you feeling bad?
If you heard this on the radio would it make you sad?
Maybe I should fill it up with pretty words, so wrong
You have come and gone
Time goes on
You have come and gone
