Jesse played the pedal steel here, and he sent us a bunch of different takes. There were so many good ones, the first few mixes of the song were just wall-to-wall steel guitar, we had three different steel tracks all going at the same time. We eventually scaled it back, because we're adults. Musta drunk my Al Gore juice because there's a lot of climate change references in there.
lyrics
When the telephones burn out and your little girl's a teen, when New York is flooded over and there ain't no Florida Keys, when being hurt's a crime and helping becomes one too, oh maybe then, maybe then, we'll be over you. When your ashes are long scattered across some distant sea and Oliver gets cut from the midget hockey team and there's so much smoke in the air that the sky's no longer blue, oh maybe then, maybe then, we'll be over you. Well I wish that I believed that a better world's in birth. Instead I wake up and I know we might get badly hurt. Oh there's so much more to gain, and still a little left to lose, but we may never get over losing you.
