A Steadier Footing
Written By: Ben Gibbard	Recorded: Spring 2001
Lyrics
It's gotten late and now I want to be alone. All of our friends were here, they all have gone home and here I sit on the front porch watching the drunks stumble forth into the night. "You gave me a heart attack, I did not see you there. I thought you had disappeared so early away from here" This is the chance I never got to make a move, but we just talk about the people we've met in the last five years and will we remember them in ten more. I let you bum a smoke, you quit this winter past. I've tried twice before, but like this, it just will not last.
