She said "You can't stay a saint that long in the city."
|
You laugh at the thought on the the elevator down,
|
You're just a phone call away
|
|
You're placing a big blind bet on the underdog
|
and though its a stretch, you believe
|
when you're against the odds, and on your feet
|
with you at your best, and promises kept,
|
She'd rather stay here with you on the laziest afternoons with you
|
|
Lost in pacific time with the sound of a dial tone
|
Let the memories count the miles and never be forgotten
|
|
You woke to the screech of the wheels on a runway
|
Over an ocean of praise on a stage,
|
The songs of your love fall to your knees
|
With you at your best, this is all you've got left,
|
She'd rather stay here with you on the laziest afternoons with you
|
|
Lost in pacific time with the sound of a dial tone
|
Let the memories count the miles and never be forgotten
|
When hearts hang on the line, and all that you fear has happened
|
Let the memories count the miles, and never be forgotten
|
|
Was it something that she said, something that she didto make you leave her here alone?
|
Was it something that you said, something that you did to make her leave you here?
|
Don't leave me here alone
|
|
Lost in pacific time with the sound of a dial tone
|
let the memories count the miles and never be forgotten
|
When hearts hang on the line, and all that you fear has happened
|
Let the memories count the miles, and never be forgotten
|
