It's not far to go it's not far at all
It's not far to go you're not far at all
Pools out back waters so cold there's not much said that I don't know
The difference between frozen hands and feet you come right out and you ask me, Nobody
ever asks me, only you come and ask me
In the pool out back water to my chest towel lying in the grass
It looks a lot worse than it seems but you know baby that's just me
Baby there you go that's just me, baby there you go that's just, baby there you go that's just me.
It's not far to go you're not far at all
and darling, darling, darling, darling ...yeah
Looking for a laugh wanna stop back when you're done whining and taking things back
I'll be there as always...feet submerged and probably frozen
We can only hope that I'll be frozen , We can only hope that I'll be...
Enough of that as if I care as if I need to know like I was there
But if I was you just call my name call my name and I'll be there
If you call my name you know I'll be there
Baby you're so far away no matter what you do no matter what you say
You couldn't stop the world for a moment in the middle of good-bye you stop into say
Hiii is it all right, is it all right if I
Hiii is it all right, is it all right if I
Hiii is it all right, is it all right if I
Hiii is it all right, is it all right
Pools out back water so cold, there's not much said then I don't know
The difference between frozen hands and feet you come right out and you ask me
It's not far to go it's not far at all (repeat x8)

| The s were at a point in their lives where they were like, "What are we doing?" and it was very depressing for them. So their mum bought them a wading pool, which Sara didn't use, but Tegan did and she wrote this song about it. | |

| Yeah, I agree with WhiteIron, they are certainly speaking of a pool in their garden, with very very cold water... but I also think they were arguing, splitting or something like that: "there's not much said that I don't know" (what you blamed me) "you come right out and you ask me nobody ever asks me" (maybe she feels excluded) But one of them is taking responsibilities: "it looks a lot worse than it seems but you know baby that's just me we can only hope that it might be me" And waiting for the other one to settle: "looking for a laugh wanna stop back when you're done whining and taking things back" And willing to be friends again: "but if I was you just call my name call my name and I'll be there if you call my name you know I'll be there" Though I see the freezing pool as an analogy to a sort of (self) punishment of isolation, I don't see the meaning of " it's not far to go it's not far at all" | |

| WhiteIron, I also heard that Tegan just used to lie in the pool for hours on end in the summer when it was boiling hot and that was when she thought of the song. I love this song | |

| i heard something about this song being about a wading pool their mother bought them. sara said this in a concert in a joking manor but i think she was putting a funny spin on a true story | |

| "I'll always be there submerged and probably frozen we can only hope that I'll be frozen" ^^^ tht always gives me the feelings that she's moving forward too fast...so she hopes that when this person comes looking for her, she's still be there (frozen)...but that doesn't really make sense when considering the other lyrics so never mind lol | |
