it always rains
when you miss her
and all you want
is to kiss her
like you did before you slid off the rails
it always goes like this it never fails
avenues
how they sparkled
when you knew
she was by your side
but the truth
isn't something you can shake kid
it's something that you did
that put a sorrow in her eyes
and what was soft
is now as sharp as nails
it always goes like this it never fails
she'll say your name again but it will never sound the same
some things we lose are lost but never go away
they never go away
she lit your smoke
smiled and said those things will kill ya
and when it started to snow
she pulled you to her room
and then you thought
come on now let's get married
well maybe it was crazy
but she felt the same as you
but what was soft
is now as sharp as nails
some storms are born within our own sails
she'll say your name again but it will never sound the same
some things we lose are lost but never go away
they never go away

Matthew Ryan is brilliant. The fact that he is not better known is criminal. May Day is spectacular, so is East Autumn Grin and Regret Over The Wires. Boxers successfully captures the spirit and grit of those albums, which in my opinion, are his best. Please keep making these fabulous albums Mr.Ryan! Mark Dempster
