《Dialtone》歌词

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

[00:00:18] Beside the drum kit in the basement

[00:00:21] I was trying to get to sleep

[00:00:23] I heard your voice come through the floorboards

[00:00:27] On my answering machine

[00:00:29] But by the time I reached the phone's ring

[00:00:32] The only thing still singing was the dialtone

[00:00:45] I couldn't find you in my dreams

[00:00:48] So I went out into the night

[00:00:50] I heard you talking somewhere soft

[00:00:53] Your voice bounced off a satellite

[00:00:56] But by the time I reached the place

[00:00:58] From where the sound originated

[00:01:01] You were gone

[00:01:06] But I smelled summer in those letters

[00:01:09] That you sprayed with your perfume

[00:01:12] I breathed your breath

[00:01:13] And I was left swaying with

[00:01:15] The curtains in the room

[00:01:18] In the knowledge you would leave me

[00:01:20] Beneath the angry April moon

[00:01:22] Where you first found me

[00:01:44] You've got one too many lovers

[00:01:47] But you're still my only friend

[00:01:49] And you got more secret admirers

[00:01:52] Than there are snakes in the garden

[00:01:55] And by the time you're finished kissing

[00:01:58] Whoever's come around hissing

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

[00:02:10] And all the people have their reasons

[00:02:13] For the things they think they have to do

[00:02:15] But none of the reasons you're speaking

[00:02:18] Sound anything like the truth

[00:02:21] Each one sounds like a composite

[00:02:23] Each one sounds like a new excuse for letting go

[00:02:31] So let go

[00:02:34] If all that's left is letting go

[00:02:37] As the x-ray clearly shows

[00:02:39] This thing was broken long ago

[00:02:42] The bars will close

[00:02:46] And the ashtrays overflow

[00:03:01] I won't be there on Thursday night

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

[00:03:07] You may not recognize my absence

[00:03:08] But I won't be the only one

[00:03:11] Who goes missing from your party

[00:03:14] As the stitches come undone
