Indefinitely Lyrics - Old 97's

Well the room was Mediterranean and the meaning was two-fold 

We got busted by your mother though you're 29 years old 

And the pictures wrapped in cellophane like sandwiches or stamps 

Burned holes in my pockets and in the inseam of my pants 

And your graduation date was in Absentia today 

And you wished you was there with her but you told her not to stay 

And the redwoods and the oak trees and the double yellow lines 

Although they're in perfect symmetry they keep imperfect time 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

Well the car was Japanese perhaps, Hungarian and blue 

And it followed you down highway one, kept almost out of view 

And it symbolizes something although you don't know what it is 

Like loneliness and longing for a future perfect kiss 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

Well second hand's the first thing that you see when you wake up 

And it rolls by in slow motion and you rub it for good luck 

Time is gonna tell your little secrets to me 

There's a frightened girl inside of you and I'm gonna set her free 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely 

I don't mean no, I don't mean maybe 

I'm indefinitely, I'm indefinitely
