lyrics

Can’t seem to put any dates on my calendar
Nothing seems important enough
Big Ideas, none of the follow through
The days go by in a haze and a rush and I’m sore and I’m stuck

And it’s been so long since I’ve been this way
And it’s been so long since I’ve seen your face

With your freckles like a constant constellation
shining down from outer space

Seems my phone is fillin’ up with ghosts
Friends pack up and they move away
Oh but you, of course, you’re just right down the street
So you could hear it if I called out your name
But I don’t wanna play that game

No, It’s been so long since I’ve felt so alone
And It’s been so long since I haven’t been stoned

You thought you had my heart, but baby don’t you know,
it was just on loan

I can still see your eyes, lovely, brown and bright
As I gave you back your heart under clear moonlight
And it was over in a moment, but the panic was just settin’ in
The wind held its breath, it was as quiet as a sin
Except for a lone late night train that was hollerin’

You really can’t stay
Best be on your way

*whistle break*

I’m puttin a date down in my calendar
It’ll be ten years from that date
I’ll call you up via phone or hologram
Just to say, you deserve better
I hope that you’re okay
