lyrics

I wrote three songs about you but I had to set them free
They all came down to pretty you and pity me
When what I really meant was you were way out of my league
Now my mind is half the battle wrecked and rattled by fatigue
I promised you I’d take you to the late night picture show
I went alone instead I knew you didn’t want to go
Then you asked me two days later if I knew about the times
I must have passed your turnoff cause I missed so many signs

I lost with my best hand in Amberland
No moonlight walks beneath the docks toes sinking in the sand
I knew I didn’t know but couldn’t understand
I made my final stand in Amberland

I had to take a trip somewhere to leave behind my mind
I pined for you and pined for what I left behind
I went down to the crossroads and I waited in the lines
But everyone is everyone from time to time
I wrote song for someone new but had to toss that too
I couldn’t help but notice she was just like you
I took a look around me and I saw you everywhere
I even saw a little bit of me in there

I lost with my best hand in Amberland
No moonlight walks beneath the docks toes sinking in the sand
I knew I didn’t know but couldn’t understand
I made my final stand in Amberland

Supply can’t meet demand in Amberland
Cause every boy and every man is reaching for her hand
I knew I didn’t know but couldn’t understand
I’ll never reach the end of Amberland
I’ll never reach the end of Amberland
