"How did I get here?"
This band is so reminiscent of the talking heads in message, very similar to 'Nothing But Flowers'
They run away in love and forget the world. They sometimes remember civilization, but he then follows up with the trite question "what ever happened to them?!" much like someone from your highschool class who had faded from your mind.
They can't event hink of names for babies, they're so removed. But they have love.
Hooray!
Agreed, the band is very similar to talking heads. To me this song means many things. It talks about the innocence that comes with childhood romance and what happens when times change and people grow older. I take the interpretation of childhood romance from "dig[ging] a tunnel from my window to yours". To me this is reminiscent of sneaking out through windowsills late at night. As the romance progresses times change but memories remain the same, "purify[ing] my mind".
