1989-1990(?) alt rock, shoegaze-ish, britpop-esque song recorded from Portland, Oregon radio. originally posted to Facebook.
not my tape, but I love the song. does anyone have any ideas? common suggestions include Nero's Rome and Wild Swans; both have been ruled out.

Hello again, i going to say the lyrics
(Verse 1) Well that�s a nice time For my embellishment If you�ll pardon me I�ll cry I�ll pay you with a compliment Just like this thread that garnishes your name Likewise, my friend You seem to decorate
(Chorus 1) I may not be adept at making dedication To the brushes I�m feeling This is my retaliation I was only trying to make the words more personal
(Verse 2) You tidy the plight of life with your smile And your big black shoes They shine and beguile When I was alone with you When I was desperately alone So were you
(chorus 2) I may not be adept at making dedication And to raise the gate was not my place What are the qualifications I was only trying to make the words more personal, personal
(instrumental)
(verse 3) I feel taller when I look up to you And I think your tender ways are genuine And when you make your big debut You�ll be the tallest, kindest Valentine
(Verse 4) And although your well mean
