Montreal

Blue Rodeo

we met in Montreal

far from the crime

moving in circles

running with so little time

sat and we talked

about rumours and lies

stayed til the sun hit the floor



you wore the dress

from the old market stall

people and places

said you were forgetting them all

I don't know if I

believed you or not

as I stared at you outside your door



those were the times

that was our life

I probably wouldn't change

one little thing if I tried

moments together mapped out

like the stars in the sky

now you're in the things that I do

still I miss talking to you



late in your bed

you said don't you be sad

think of how lucky we are

for the things that we've had

life that's around me

I'm letting it go

but you stay up here in my head



those were the times

that was our life

I probably wouldn't change

one little thing if I tried

moments together mapped out

like the stars in the sky

now you're in the things that I do

still I miss talking to you
