This song is representative of just being trapped within a life of conformity and unleashing your inner most desire to go out into the world and do what you've always wanted to... regardless of who is holding you back...evening if it means letting go of a love. Although this may not be characterized as the typical break-up song because it almost seems as though neither one of the couple is really ready to let go...but really when are we prepared for a break-up?
The light is still burning,
it's so reassuring,
the note on the bed,
full of all the things she never said,
of loving and loathing and all in between,
insignificant messages of intimate meaning.
He awakens the night,
only to find out,
oh, lord where's she gone?
as he angrily cries out,
do you know if our love just innocently died out?
or faded like the tide on the way out?
Chorus
Our names in the tree,
forever there'll be,
through the storms and the rain,
and the whims of the insane,
as long as the stars in the infinite sky still remain,
I'll be waiting in the bright of day
The leaving town sign in the back of her head,
as far as he knows all the memories are spent,
supremacy grandeur and all their love meant,
was lost in the rain,
like the whims of the insane.
Chorus
No girl in a miniskirt looking to get some,
no daddy's girl, bad girl, no biker babe needs him,
just a struggling artist in the city of dreams,
who left him that night for the limelighting beams.

You touched all the things
that her heart had yearned for years,
picking up her pain
and drying all
"A Letter To Him."
There is a woman's hand,
Dancing across the page.
It is like a bird in flight,
Cramped for space.

LONG TIME COMING
Its been a long time coming

trying to drown my sorrows
with the whiskey I shoot

Sitting at home on a Friday night,
She had QVC on speed dial.
Ready to call when the lines were open,
She'd been wanting those
We're Breakin' Up
Now I been trying to make this work
But I can't take no more of this hurt
Baby for whatever it's worth
My joy
