so i believe we wrote the lyric 'but i still feel you pulsing like sonar through the days and the waves' and that i made a list of band names that weren't really good in a notebook in the 1980s that went missing and about 7 or 8 of the names became the band names of popular groups


the list included:


'the goo goo dolls'


'the verve'


and 


'the verve pipe'


...because of the bob dylan line that goes 'i took his wife to enerve' as i heard it for years & years until i googled the dylan line 30 years later and found out it was 'i took his wife to italy' (where suze rotolo had gone when she left dylan after an abortion), i had thought there was a word similar to 'enerve' that i had somewhere read that meant energized and charming, but i never found it searching through dictionaries, geography books and thesauruses, except for 'verve' which wasn't the word i was looking for, but i wrote it down anyway
