about

"Easily one of the most fun tracks to record and perform live, I needed to leave it as the last-track-banger. This tune is a great sum of the parts, mostly depicting how slow and distant everything feels when you’re stuck in a moving van for months on end. When you tour for work, life happens the whole time you’re gone and people change a lot more than you’re ready for. This song is about learning to say goodbye properly, before it’s too late."

lyrics

I guess I felt a difference
Spokane to Crow’s Pass
You had your head out the window
I had half a tank of gas

Did I let you down,
I tried my best
I was trying to get home
To whatever was left

We got done with Winnipeg
Drove through the night to Montana
You wouldn’t say a thing
I could tell you didn’t wanna

Why in slow motion
Does goodbye feel so blue
What am I gonna do without you
Why in slow motion
Does goodbye feel so blue
What am I gonna do without you

We split to separate rooms
The last night in Alberta
I knew I needed to say it
You knew I was never gonna

Then the van broke down
While we headed home west
We were trying to get back
To whatever was left

Why in slow motion
Does goodbye feel so blue
What am I gonna do without you
Why in slow motion
Does goodbye feel so blue
What am I gonna do without you
What am I gonna do without you
