lyrics

You hold a pen between your teeth
And I ask you for a leaf
to write on
to plan out
the rest of my life

You make a phone call, drop the change
My back is to you
but if I could rearrange
I’d turn around

Around the corner,
I’m listening for sirens
to act on me as guidance
to protect me from this lying to myself
Oh, oh

You light a cigarette for me
I hear your new, deep voice
on the answering machine
and I am happy

Happy to hear from you, but
I can’t get too close
I know what it’s like when a heart’s broke
And I’m not prepared not to choke
When you flatter me
Boy, you flatter me

You like my blonde hair, blues eyes, too
You’d like to hear me
Should I write a song for you
on my guitar?

My guitar is playing,
but I don’t know what I’m saying
I think I might be swaying
Oh, it feels good to be playing this game
with you, oh-oh
Cuz you flatter me
Boy, you flatter me

You held a pen between your teeth
And I asked you for a leaf
to write on
to plan out
the rest of my life
