Meaningless Lyrics

Oil tankers in the National Guard

I came to meet you, my car died in your yard

Why turn the key?

There's so much here to see

These are my memories

Of precious places, precious things

That were meaningless before

We'd seen them together

Old hinges squeaking in the rain

That hotel by the highway where we stayed

There's something every hour

Who needs the Eiffel Tower

When we've got memories

Of precious places, precious things

That were meaningless before

We'd seen them together

The pen, the car

The paint, the pier

The moon and star

The message clear

Liberty raised her hand to us

As if to say, ''It's OK, live today, live today''

I said, ''Don't leave me, don't break the tie''

Then I left you and the time went rolling by

And here's what I can't stand

I know that every landmark

Triggers memories

Of stupid places and silly things

That were meaningless before

We'd seen them together (repeat 3x)
