Something About Geography

I regret not quitting my job after college to travel around Europe
And I regret that I never acknowledge what I want but what I think I should
And I wish I’d written more letters, more postcards, and read more maps
But I didn’t know it’s what I wanted until after it was gone
But they always say that
They always say that
They always say
It’s what they always say
And I wish I would have been a bit less awkward when I left you on the platform
And that whole ride I anguished over fucking up my chance to say goodbye
And I wish I wouldn’t lose myself in moments that I can’t ever take back
But I know why they say that life’s too short to keep on living in nostalgia
But they always say that
They always say that
They always say
It’s what they always say
I was lost for a little while, I couldn’t find my way home
You said it’s just the way it gets when you start to get old
I wrote you letters that I thought you’d never read about how
My decisions didn’t seem so sound to me after a while
Say that
They always say that
They always say
It’s what they always say
But they always say that
They always say that
They always say
It’s what they always say
