I can remember the good old days
When you and me used to hide away
Where the stars were shining or the sun was blinding our eyes.
Yeah you filled up my glass
With promises that could never last
But I still find pieces of you in the back of my mind.
The opening lyrics of unreleased track Talk by Irish band Kodaline, from their debut album In a Perfect World (2013). My thanks to the ever awesome Tosha for making me aware of the song and the band. You’ll find her original poetry and singing on her blog here.

Thanks Alex. Glad you liked it.
I really did. Thank you.
Powerful words…
They really are. I first heard the song with the lyric video so the words stood out even more.
Beautiful songs – I think I first heard them when I was in college. All I Want – one of my favorites, not only because of the cute puppy. 😊
That would be a good reason anyhow haha. I’m going to listen to more of their music tonight.
A cute puppy is definitely worth it! You are in for a good night for sure, Alex. 😊
Sometimes lyrics just grab you.
Indeed. One of those songs in which pretty much every line could have been quoted.
