DESCRIPTION:
from the album To Run More Smoothly (Thrill Jockey Records, 1998)

lyrics:

take my heart with you
when you go away

take a little piece of my heart away with you when you go
use it real slow it's gotta last the whole time that you're away from me
make a tape saying i love you
play it all the way through
every night before you sleep while you're away from me

i don't mind that you have to go
i'm even happy to have my freedom for a while
but this time the time is so long and it's so far away
so to make it easier...

leave the freezer full of love
i'll heat up some every night
won't be near as much fun when i am by myself

make a loop saying i love you
push continuous play
maybe then it won't feel like you're so far away

i don't mind that you have to go
i'm even happy to have my freedom for a while
but this time the time is so long and it's so far away
so to make it easier...

take
my heart
with you
when you go
away
