Pay for Me |
I thought I’d come and see you |
And your long and lazy scene |
Given stage direction, finger on a magazine |
I’ll call you what I knew 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 actors want to be alone |
Your room is still and soft |
As a jeweller’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 is nothing I can do |
I lost you but I beat the sound |
Couldn’t if I wanted to |
The Concorde 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 |
