To me, the only thing left after a while was that night we watched documentaries up through morning and then you kicked me out.
You opened up your screen door and threw me off the porch.
It was summer then and I drove home whistling muddy waters down the pike.
And that was that: our one sweet night together.
Under highway signs I watched our love start fluttering and dissipating.
I counted all the headlights to make sure I was all right.
Now I'm wondering is it me or is it me that can't see silver linings?
So I fucked it up. I watched you go.
I saw my hand not dialing the phone.
All I'm left to do is remember the dull room we sat in blue stream light watching the strike of '59.
I dreamed of wrecking my underwear.
Oh can't I touch your cheeks somewhere under dirt filled rainy nights with my socks stuck in the mud?
Please come dive in puddles with me.

It is one of those instances where you keep thinking about it for awhile, but nothing happens. She cut him off there, and "that was that".
i love this song because its about getting really close to someone but messing everything up because you said something, or didn't say something, and you're just resigned to sitting at opposite ends of the couch in the perpetually awkward twilight of the TV screen, awash in thoughts of how it might have been. I've had way too many of these nights, sweet, but tragically so.
As for the underwear, the entire EP is obsessed with the pelvis region: car seats, thighs, underwear--its the center of the body, the warmest region, and the one of the most sensitive. So many thoughts stem from here. Its only natural.
Oh can't I touch your cheeks somewhere under dirt filled rainy nights with my socks stuck in the mud?
Please come dive in puddles with me."
I'd say I can really associate with these words. Exactly what I felt like when i was really turned on and I wasnt seeing my boyfriend. Definitley can see why you would dream of wrecking your underwear...;P
Such a romantic line at the end. So sweet. Such a great way to put it.
