I thought I'd come and you
|
And your long lazy scene
|
Instate direction, finger at a magazine.
|
I'd call you when I need you
|
I can't get used to your new name.
|
|
Send a body double over with your keys
|
She'll see you in an hour
|
Everybody quiet please.
|
Essex house is down the road
|
The actresses want to be alone.
|
|
Your room is still and soft
|
As a jeweler's.
|
Incidental music coming down the hall
|
Remember when I never had to wait for you at all?
|
I wish my hands were yours as I lay your keys
|
On a magazine.
|
|
Take me to LaGuardia
|
My baby's gonna pay for me.
|
|
Bottle from the duty-free
|
I'll drink it all across the sea.
|
Lay me down business class
|
Headphones and a sleeping mask.
|
|
She's gonna pay for me
|
She's gonna pay for me.
|
|
Brother, I wish you were home
|
Just tell me you're not alone
|
Call me back; I'm on a plane
|
I think I'm somewhere over spain.
|
I'm in the dark without the stars
|
I've never seen a black so dark
|
Thought I'd be above the rain
|
Somewhere on a higher plane.
|
|
Oh brother, I wish you were home
|
My brother, I wish you were home.
|
|
Baby, you're asleep by now
|
You never stayed awake for me
|
You never waited up for me,
|
No, you never waited up for me!
|
Now there's nothing I can do
|
I lost you but I beat the sound
|
Couldn't if I wanted to
|
The cogwheel doesn't turn around!
|
|
Oh brother, I wish you were home
|
My baby is in a room alone.
|
|
My brother, I wish you were home.
