So where have you gone to, my love?
Yeah, I been feelin' so sad and so lonely wantin' for you.
It don't seem fair and it don't seem, no, it don't seem right at all.
So, I'm cuttin' loose and callin' a friend up,
And we're gonna drink and dance with every girl and howl at the moon,
But it won't feel right and it won't make losing you easy to do.
'Cause there you go again,
Breakin' my heart in two,
It looks so easy, it looks almost second nature on you.
'Cause most of my friends are either married,
Or they have kids on the way,
And I don't have much of anything,
In fact I think it might be that way to stay.
But I don't mind,
'Cause no matter how hard I look I ain't ever gonna find,
Another quite like you.
I'll be 27 this year, you'll be 25,
And there's a whole lotta livin' left before we die,
So I ain't gonna try to hide it, cover it up with big words,
You see the truth is that I miss you and I loved you so much.
But all our friends, they got married,
And they have kids of their own,
And it looks like that ain't us and it's sad,
But I think it might be that way to stay.
Still I don't mind,
'Cause no matter how hard you look you ain't ever gonna find,
A love that's quite like mine.

Saw this guy playing solo, supporting Justin Townes Earle in a pokey pub in downtown Adelaide, & doing most of the songs from this EP. It was a killer set, this guy is a great talent. ian green
