  • Saw you at the fall
    Picture on a closed-circuit
    Boy you lost it all
    Thinking you could rework it
    Stole a credit card and ran away
    Back in Louisville they called the play and now

    We'll all rewind and just
    Listen for the lies of summer

    Who gets hurt the most
    The guys that you would call brother
    Girls that loved a ghost
    A ghost that had a sick mother
    Now you're waiting for the meds to take but it
    Takes a miracle to heal this break and now

    We'll all rewind and just
    Listen for the lies of summer

    If the doctor will just sign this pass
    I put my hand up on the plexiglass
    And scan your face, to see if you're in there
    Wait a sec I gotta write this down
    'Cause once they put you in a paper gown
    They leave no trace, like you've never been there

    So we'll all rewind and just
    Listen for the lies of summer

    We'll all rewind and wait to hear Writer/s: Aimee Mann
