Saint Anthony
Lost and Found: A Journey Through Memories in 'Saint Anthony'
Lyrics
I know this neighborhood like the back of my hand
I am familiar with this neighborhood very well.
So I will cut through the alley so I can get right there
I will take a shortcut through the alley to reach a specific destination quickly.
That way you don't have to feel alone or sad
I want to be there for you so that you don't feel lonely or sad.
I guess I should leave around 7 or 8
I should leave around 7 or 8 because my girlfriend dislikes it when I stay out too late.
Because my girlfriend hates when I stay too late
My girlfriend is unhappy when I stay out late.
Even though I don't mind the lack of sleep
Even though I don't mind losing sleep.
And you lost yourself when you left Water Street
You lost a part of yourself when you left Water Street.
And I lost myself around the age of 23
I lost a part of myself at the age of 23.
I'm sitting on the back porch looking at the night sky
I am sitting on the back porch, observing the night sky.
But there's too much light pollution so I guess I'll go inside
There's too much light pollution, so I decide to go inside.
And tell myself I'm going to bed early
I tell myself I will go to bed early.
You called me on my drive home
You called me while I was driving home.
Then you fell asleep on the telephone
You fell asleep on the telephone during our conversation.
While you were hiding from your fiance in the front seat of your car
You were hiding from your fiance in the front seat of your car.
You lost yourself on a beach in California
You lost a part of yourself on a beach in California.
And I lost my lunch in the bathroom of a dive bar
I lost my lunch in the bathroom of a dive bar.
And you lost your love of swing bands and romance novels
You lost your love for swing bands and romance novels.
I lost most of myself last fall
I lost a significant part of myself last fall.
If you pray to Saint Anthony
If you pray to Saint Anthony, he will help you find lost things.
He'll help you find all your lost things
Expressing a belief in the power of Saint Anthony to help find lost items.
Don't know if it's true
Uncertain whether the belief in Saint Anthony's assistance is true.
But I'd like to believe
Expressing a desire to believe in the effectiveness of Saint Anthony's assistance.
