I'm living with your memory In the attic in my mind And you've been getting by without me But I've been spending all my time With a girl that I remember Who'll never leave or need to grow 'Cause when you left you left your memory Now it's the only thing I know When the past gives me no comfort And though the future is the cost The way I'm choosing to remember I'll forever be the man I never was And you, you fade But the memory remains the same And I, I can't change And I think that living with your memory Is slowly driving me insane You are perfect but you're empty And it gets so lonely in my mind 'Cause your image in my memory's The only shred of you that's left behind You were real but then you left me And that's the part I can't accept So I'll keep on living with your memory Because it's all that I've got left It's all that I've got left
I'm here a couple months shy of this song's 20th anniversary, and I'm damned if it doesn't still sound fresh and new - and it still brings just the right pain and regret to mind.
My favorite song of all time
This, Loath to Refuse, and Out Here in the Cold are masterpieces. Gotye's music is timeless.
One of the more underrated tracks in the album I do declare.
I'm living with your memory
In the attic in my mind
And you've been getting by without me
But I've been spending all my time
With a girl that I remember
Who'll never leave or need to grow
'Cause when you left you left your memory
Now it's the only thing I know
When the past gives me no comfort
And though the future is the cost
The way I'm choosing to remember
I'll forever be the man I never was
And you, you fade
But the memory remains the same
And I, I can't change
And I think that living with your memory
Is slowly driving me insane
You are perfect but you're empty
And it gets so lonely in my mind
'Cause your image in my memory's
The only shred of you that's left behind
You were real but then you left me
And that's the part I can't accept
So I'll keep on living with your memory
Because it's all that I've got left
It's all that I've got left
I'm here a couple months shy of this song's 20th anniversary, and I'm damned if it doesn't still sound fresh and new - and it still brings just the right pain and regret to mind.

Thank you for uploading this I could not find the album anywhere. Not even a CD available! I love gotye so this is great to listen to.
Boardface CDs do exist but they are sold out on Gotye’s website.
I'd love to meet this man 😊
This video is so tripping me out.
Cracking tune
I thought this was on like drawing blood album
It was originally on Boardface but then remastered and re-released onto Like Drawing Blood in 2008.
Amazing!

It’s funny that he put this in like drawing blood as well (I still think of it as boardface tho)
