Sentimental Guy (Live at A.E.C. Theatre, Adelaide, Australia - May 2011)

Ben Folds
Album : The Best Imitation Of Myself : A Retrospective

There's a moment in my mind
I scribbled and erased a
thousand times
Like a letter never
written or sent
These conversations with the dead
I used to be a sentimental guy
Now I'm haunted by the left unsaid
I never thought
so much could change
Little things you said or did
are part of me,
come out from time to time
Probably no one
I know now would notice
But I never thought
so much could change
You drifted far away
Far away it seems
Time has stopped,
the clock keeps going
People talkin' and I'm watching
As flashes of their faces
go black and white
And fade to yellow
in a box in an attic
But I never thought so much
Could change,
now I don't miss anyone
I don't miss anything
What a shame cause
I used to be a sentimental guy
