This week’s song from Looking For Buildings is “Follow,” an oddly bouncy song about a broken relationship. Well, you know, I always had a thing for that bouncy minor key like in “Happy Together”…
The past is a foreign land so this was far away When we two met by accident and jumped into the fray He expected to meet someone else and so in fact did I It was years ago December and the snow was falling down We laughed and fell together and made angels on the ground Who needs to take vacation when you’ve got the warmth of two And soon the rest would follow Chorus: Like a downhill racing sled It might have been predicted Where this cold snowfall led It was closer to a blizzard than I ever thought I’d see We took forever vows among our friends and family We left together for a honeymoon in sunny climes And soon the rest would follow Chorus: Like a downhill racing sled It might have been predicted Where this cold snowfall led It was snowing hard again on another winter day I asked him where he’ d been and he didn’t want to say His body was still here but his eyes were far away And soon the rest would follow Like a downhill racing sled It might have been predicted Where this cold snowfall led The year turns round the snow returns over and again And soon the rest will follow And soon the rest will follow And soon the rest will follow
