Lyrics

You say, to come around here, you haven't been around since a week last Saturday, I say I'll have to check my plans, it's getting out of hand theres no way for Saturday

The speaker is recounting a conversation where they were asked to come around but haven't been available since a specific time.


I say I’ll give you a call but my soul feels small and I know it’s not happening, you say or any other day, whatever suits you best, don’t be a stranger

The speaker feels hesitant to make plans or commitments due to feeling inadequate or unsure. The other person suggests any day would work and encourages the speaker not to remain distant.


All my dreams of yesterday seem a million miles away filed in boxes and they're labelled please don't throw away, all my dreams of yesterday seem a million miles away

The speaker reflects on past aspirations and dreams which now feel distant and unattainable. They are kept preserved but seemingly out of reach.


I know there’s no way i can go, the stress is just too much and its fraught with danger it seems theres been a change of plan got my dates mixed up again, gonna have to be that stranger

The speaker acknowledges an inability to participate due to stress and potential risks. They mention a mix-up in scheduling, resulting in them being distant or estranged.


All my dreams of yesterday seem a million miles away filed in boxes and they're labelled please don't throw away, all my dreams of yesterday seem a million miles away
