Miriam, they're still playing Ruby Vroom at that coffeeshop where we used to meet
Yeah, the music's still strong, but it's much too quiet now your feather-light laugh is all gone
The best days of our lives we spend dreaming; wishing there were better days to come
Now I don't wanna stay here; this place makes me sad
But I'm not sure quite where to run
The neighbours left early this morning
They were gone before even woke up
Yeah, the panic sets in without warning
It's all you can do to stand up
But some days, these days, when it's raining, Miriam, I can hear you smile
With your wet clothes, and your wet hair, dancing around like you've not a care
While the rest of the world worries 'bout keeping dry
Well, the panic sets in without warning
It's all you can do to stand up
Yeah, the neighbours left early this morning
They were gone before we even woke up
Yeah, they were gone before we even woke up
