the van pelt - did we hear the same song lyrics

did we hear the same song when
upon taking an afternoon break in your apartment during an agenda+less spring day
i flipped the record over to play love reign o’er me?
i imagined we’d both sink into a different universe between the sheets
but you broke into laughter

did we hear the same song when
i came to find you in montreal and told you i wanted to drive indefinitely north?
and as incident on 57th street came on i was sure we’d make it all the way to churchill
manitoba, but as you got drowsy you asked if we could just find a room in mont tremblant
did we hear the same song when
we escaped the dinner party in the countryside and found that old turntable in the living room?
when gianni bella sang “la mia sete cresce finché l’acqua non c’è”
i was convinced you’d turn the world off with me and know that that dirt underneath my
fingernails represented how little i needed to love you
but instead you said let’s get the h+ll out of here

did we hear the same song when
you were too hungover to enjoy the beautiful day outside?
so i put on astral weeks content to stare at the wall together
and you asked me “hey where’s the cacophony coming from?”

did we hear the same song when
we bartended together and the lazy dj played
tears for fears at the same time every night?
i’d catch you smiling in my periphery assuming you too
loved being trapped in this routine with me
yet when that same song came on the radio you didn’t even bat a lash

did we hear the same song when
you talked about rachel and jeffrey
through the first five minutes of marquee moon
and when you asked me if we had just begun listening to the same song again
i said… yesssss. and continued listening to the rain
as the darkness doubled for the final five minutes of that song
