hem - st. charlene lyrics
(dan messe)
traded my last favor
for a map of st. charlene
all these ghosts and angels
friends and strangers
ask me where i’ve been
the engine seemed to tremble
when i drove through our old town
and i found the house
where we used to live
when i tried my key
i don’t know what i thought i’d find
i tried to remember
what i thought i thought i left behind
the rooms were all deserted
though the landlord kept them well
they were swept and shuttered
paint that covered our familiar smells
i looked around our kitchen
and i climbed the narrow stairs
and i called your name
just so i could hear it
and i swear these rooms
were where we once used to make love
now they’re just a sp-ce
and there’s no trace left of us
i spent another five days
on the banks of st. charlene
after my car was fixed
i made some extra cash for gasoline.
i left without remembering
the reason i had come
but i knew then that i needed to leave
if i’m sad at least i know
that nothing’s what it was
and i’m out of place
’cause there’s no trace left of us
there was no trace left of us
