Nothing, Not Nearly (Live)

I won't forget the late September
Where we basked among the midnight embers
But it's going like a half-remembered dream

Left and north of where we met
Thinking best of going west
Well we lost each other in that river stream

We did not have long, you know
To bask in the afterglow
Once it's gone, it's gone
Love waits for no one

I thought I'd come and find you there
Waiting until you lost your hair
And got your place out in the woods

You're not afraid of trees or bears
Or anything with tendencies
To wanna hurt you good

I suspected your fire maybe
You can't give yourself to me
We've not got long, you see
Time waits for nobody

The only thing I learned in a year
Where I didn't smile once, not really
There's nothing matters more than love
Nothing, no, not nothing no, not nearly

We've not got long, you know
Bask in the afterglow
Cause once it's gone, it's gone
Love waits for no one

We've not got long, you know
Bask in the afterglow
Once it's gone, it's gone
Love waits for no one
