Great Big Sea

How Did We Get From Saying I Love You

1. It's a cold day for September was all I thought to say

When I saw you on the street the other day

I knew something's changed between us, all the talk we made was small

But what do you say to someone when they've heard you say it all?

It's an awkward conversation, in a most peculiar way

R: How did we get from saying I love you to I'll see you around someday

2. It seemed like only days ago, we had so much to say

Did we take it all for granted, did it all get thrown away

"It calls for rain this afternoon", you finally replied

And there was such a stuttering silence, that I felt my mouth go dry

We'll just talk about the weather, cause there's not much more to say

R: How did we get from saying... (2x)

*: Has all the ice been broken, all our surfaces been scratched

Have all the words been spoken, have we finally met our match?

Cause it's an awkward coversation, in a most peculiar way

R: How did we get from saying... (3x)
