Lyrics
I saw your ghost last night, tiptoe across my room. The floor went cold and my vision it was ripe, but was it you?
Woke up at quarter to five. Tiptoed upon the roof. Looked at the stars those tiny fractions of light. They're just like me, they're just like you, but that's who?
I saw a fortune teller in a dirty cellar, but it was all just lies. He said the future's better, son it's time to settle, but I'll make no disguise. Not these eyes. They're looking deep inside.
And I read your letters sometimes. They tiptoe across my room. Are the crinkled words just wrinkles in time? Or are they you?
I've been driving around a lot with a six pack and six strings to keep me still. I sound out my sorrows to all these empty parking lots. I'm getting close, but still so far from some truth.
I saw a fortune teller in a dirty cellar, but it was all just lies. He said the future's better, son it's time to settle, but I'll make no disguise. Not these eyes. They're looking deep inside.
