For the Muse's Muse Awards
A young unassuming lad from Toronto. Fiddles with his guitar and sometimes a few tunes come out.
Story behind the song
Smelled the perfume of a friend in an elevator at work (she wasn't there lol)
Lyrics
It's been quite a while now I know
I should've gotten used to it, quite a while ago
But today, for a moment I thought you were there
I smelled your perfume in the air
But it was just old memories
Playing tricks on me
I swear the other day I saw you walk by
Turned around, you'd disappeared, I don't know why
Now I still feel you here
I can hear your voice, singin' so clear
But they're just old memories
Playing tricks on me
Flashing back to better times
I can take the pain sometimes
But I see you no matter where you are
Who knew the past could hit so hard
These old memories won't let me go
These old memories
Keep playing tricks on me
These old memories
Keep weighing down on me
Found a long lost faded love letter
Fool that I am thought reading would make it better
I heard your words clear as day
I've gone crazy most would say
Just more old memories
Playing tricks on me
Somebody just has to let me know
I've gone too far, I've just got to let you go
But I saw you just last week
With your brand new shiny family
This has to be the last memory
Playing a trick on me
