Dive for Your Memory - The Go-Betweens

If the cliffs were any closer

If the water wasn’t so bad

I’d dive for your memory

On the rocks and the sand

I’d dive for you

Like a bird I’d descend

Deep down I’m lonely

And I miss my friend

So when I hear you saying

That we stood no chance

I’ll dive for your memory

We stood that chance

We stood side by side

Strong and true

Just wish you’d remember

Bad times don’t get you through

So when I hear you saying

That we stood no chance

I’ll dive for your memory

We stood that chance

Now, I dive black waters

The waters of her dream

Are black and forgetful

I’d like to make them clean

So when I hear you saying

That we stood no chance

I’ll dive for your memory

We stood that chance

So when I hear you saying

That we stood no chance

I’ll dive for your memory

We stood that chance
