《Dialtone》歌词

[00:00:00] Dialtone - Saturday Looks Good To Me

[00:00:50] Beside the drum kit in the basement

[00:00:53] I was trying to get to sleep

[00:00:56] I heard your voice come through the floorboards

[00:00:59] On my answering machine

[00:01:01] But by the time I reached the phone's ring

[00:01:04] The only thing still singing was the dialtone

[00:01:17] I couldn't find you in my dreams

[00:01:20] So I went out into the night

[00:01:23] I heard you talking somewhere soft

[00:01:25] Your voice bounced off a satellite

[00:01:28] But by the time I reached the place

[00:01:30] From where the sound originated

[00:01:33] You were gone

[00:01:38] But I smelled summer in those letters

[00:01:41] That you sprayed with your perfume

[00:01:44] I breathed your breath

[00:01:46] And I was left swaying with

[00:01:47] The curtains in the room

[00:01:50] In the knowledge you would leave me

[00:01:52] Beneath the angry April moon

[00:01:55] Where you first found me

[00:02:16] You've got one too many lovers

[00:02:19] But you're still my only friend

[00:02:21] And you got more secret admirers

[00:02:24] Than there are snakes in the garden

[00:02:27] And by the time you're finished kissing

[00:02:30] Whoever's come around hissing

[00:02:31] You're spitting out poison

[00:02:42] And all the people have their reasons

[00:02:45] For the things they think they have to do

[00:02:47] But none of the reasons you're speaking

[00:02:50] Sound anything like the truth

[00:02:54] Each one sounds like a composite

[00:02:55] Each one sounds like a new excuse for letting go

[00:03:03] So let go

[00:03:06] If all that's left is letting go

[00:03:09] As the x-ray clearly shows

[00:03:12] This thing was broken long ago

[00:03:14] The bars will close

[00:03:18] And the ashtrays overflow

[00:03:34] I won't be there on Thursday night

[00:03:35] But I hope you all have fun

[00:03:38] You may not recognize my absence

[00:03:40] But I won't be the only one

[00:03:43] Who goes missing from your party

[00:03:46] As the stitches come undone
