2. Well, this is one of the greatest 'girlfriend drama' songs ever written imho, and it's his song ...

And now you get to see him play it

Dude's friggin' good, man (or ma'am) ...

it's not a silly little moment
it's not the storm before the calm
this is the deep and dyin' breath of
this love we've been workin' on

can't seem to hold you like I want to
so I can feel you in my arms
nobody's gonna come and save you
we pulled too many false alarms

we're goin' down ... and you can see it too
we're goin' down ... and you know that we're doomed
my dear we're ... slow dancing in a burnin' room

i was the one you always dreamed of
you were the one I tried to draw
how dare you say it's nothing to me
baby, you're the only light I ever saw

i make the most of all the sadness
you'll be a bitch because you can
you try to hit me just to hurt me so you leave me feeling dirty
cause you can't understand

we're goin' down ... and you can see it too
we're goin' down ... and you know that we're doomed
my dear we're ... slow dancing in a burnin' room

go cry about it, why don't you?

my dear we're ... slow dancing in a burnin' room

don't you think we outta know by now?
don't you think we shoulda learned somehow?

5. Yeah, he's amazing to watch ... he's dripping with talent ...

Much like Dave Matthews, come to think of it ...
