lyrics
called in to see if you still catastrophise
if I make it worse, at least it passes time
shot the drinking bird, told the news to her
don't you love the sound, hailstones on the ground
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
called in to see, but all I am yet to find
is you, thinking of those cold hard dollar signs
don't expect no grace from your guarded face
left the pharmacy, "just don't let it be for long"
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
and I wait for something holy
so go right ahead and show me
if I make it worse, at least it passes time
shot the drinking bird, told the news to her
don't you love the sound, hailstones on the ground
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
called in to see, but all I am yet to find
is you, thinking of those cold hard dollar signs
don't expect no grace from your guarded face
left the pharmacy, "just don't let it be for long"
if I called it what it was, you'd never have to know me
so I guess we'll call it love in conversation only
and I wait for something holy
so go right ahead and show me
