Classic love story true to his western tx roots. One of my favorites as a story, but I think there are alot of songs that are amazing not even listed on this site. I guess I should figure out how to add them, because I have about 8 REK cd's.
I am bound to you with a tie that we cannot break
With a night that we can't replace
I'm lost but found with you, in a bed that we'll never make
It's a feeling we always chase
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Mmm, in another time
And in another place
So lie to me tonight and pretend 'til the morning light
And imagine that you are mine
'Cause when the sun will rise with the truth coming out your eyes
We'll be good in another life
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Feels like something's special but it never felt like love
Wonder what we could be living in another life
Catch us in the mirror and it looks a lot like love
Then you stop me talking as you kiss me from above
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, yeah
In another time
And in another place
With a night that we can't replace
I'm lost but found with you, in a bed that we'll never make
It's a feeling we always chase
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Mmm, in another time
And in another place
So lie to me tonight and pretend 'til the morning light
And imagine that you are mine
'Cause when the sun will rise with the truth coming out your eyes
We'll be good in another life
I could write a book about the things that you said to me on the pillow
And the way you think, and how you make me feel
You can feel my mind and move my body with the fiction, fantasies
Just call this what it is, we don't pretend it's real
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Feels like something's special but it never felt like love
Wonder what we could be living in another life
Catch us in the mirror and it looks a lot like love
Then you stop me talking as you kiss me from above
So don't make promises to me that you're gonna break
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Don't paint wonderful lies on me that wash away
We only ever wanted one thing from this
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, in another place
In another time, what could we have been?
Oh, yeah
In another time
And in another place

@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday".
I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
This song is about a guy who's met this lady and they instantly fall in love...U knw how we often get carried away while in a relationship,we say things that we sometimes never live up to...So this guy asks the lady..'dnt make promises to me that U gonna break' he's asking her to not say things she won't do...He knows that love is a game of which U lose some or win some,but unless yall play for keeps then yeah go ahead make promises and keep them...
