about

People gradually change in long term relationships, it's just the way of things, and it's not always a bad thing. Moody atmospheric dark pop with a swinging time-machine groove.

lyrics

Exploring space between the lines,
the taste of love, your place or mine,
you are my moon, you are my world,
but you're not the girl you were.

You once were wild and now you're Zen,
once my connoisseur, my beneficial friend.
Still the golden apple of my eye,
but you're not the guy you were.

High five for getting wise, call of the wild. (Coming, darling.)

Tears for Fears and coaster rides, dreams flew past in hyperdrive,
while empires fell in miniature, ‘cos you're Not The Girl You Were.

Smokescreensavers hide the lie, that you're not the guy you were. Slowquickslow we all concur, that you're not the girl/guy you were.
