lyrics

Her language was a perfect phrase / her playful prose followed me for days / down the alleyways of my desires / to their final resting place / in a vacation town where I lived year round / she migrated here with the summer crowds / and we fell in love under impossible smiles / life was perfect if just for a little while / oh, hello exile / and a thousand years may come and go / we may never meet another soul / here on our own island of elba in the poconos / oh, hello exile / and we bathed in the sun / cut our jeans into shorts / outstared every star in the sky / under the cover of nowhere the present was a present / it looked beautiful on you every night / but we knew it would end yeah we knew it all along / it was a future never reconciled / it’s as if letting your shackled heart feel loved was more difficult than total denial / oh, hello exile / and a thousand years may come and go / I may never meet another soul / here on my own island of elba in the poconos / oh, hello exile / now I imagined her memory would fade in the void / she’d only reappear every now and again / i’d smile at the thought of us / go back to my day / but that was purely wishful thinking / oh, hello exile.
