Lyrics
Take me back to Armidale, you used to say
As if it were the last time we were happy
You'd whisper it to the wind on a quiet day
When this push and pull was useless in this give and take
I admit that my love for you had worn away
A listless existence spent waiting away the days
I couldn't see a future and lost hope for a change
But was I wrong cause you still believed enough to say
Take me back to Armidale, across the Great Dividing Range
We packed a hatchback on the road, when we first heard our song
Take me back to Armidale, to that cabin in the trees
To that couch by the fire, when we were still in love
Six months on and the sting of these wounds have faded
I've yet to heal but it's hard to notice without the pain
What you did exists now only as words on a page
And I'm blinded by the memories of golden days
So I look to the past in search of something pure
And I go so far to the point where I'm unsure
Was it really so long since we were happy?
Cause I find myself sitting here saying the same
Take me back to Armidale, across the Great Dividing Range
We packed a hatchback on the road, when we first heard our song
Take me back to Armidale, to that cabin in the trees
To that couch by the fire, when we were still in love
When I think on it now, it's still so hard to see
But I don't think I was ever really happy
I guess at that time it was enough for me
To see you smiling, warm and free
And there were so many times
Where you tried to inspire
The same fire in my eyes, but I'd
Deny it even if you'd cry
You could say that I was heartless
But the truth of it is
It was all of this carnage
That had left me toothless
