never goes away - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I miss you like hot rain

Like red dirt, like a river

I miss you like sweet tea

Like sunshine on my shoulders, like tangerine

You've left me with a gift

Or curse some would say

It sticks to me like honey

And it's always changing shape

Sometimes it is a sickness

That covers everything

There are days where I don't see it

But it never goes away

It never goes away

It nеver goes away

I may nevеr know the reason

There is no way around the changing of the seasons

All December sinking at your ankles

Summertime and you're a stranger

But you're still in every room

No getting rid of you

I've known it from the moment that you left

Me with a gift

Or curse some would say

It sticks to me like honey

And it's always changing shape

Sometimes it is a sickness

That covers everything

There are days where I don't see it

But it never, it never goes away

It never goes away

The sky, the sand, the hotel lobby

On my skin and in my body

Dry cough, candy, cinnamon

Hell and back just to forget

Your laugh, your touch, your skin, your body

Sand and sky, the hotel lobby

Day by day it turns to gray

But it never goes away

It never goes away

It never goes
