The Calmative - Distancing Lyrics

She knows all the time I'm gone away
She's got days and nights
Sometimes a flight to make
The distant lines are long enough
To hold us when we've had too much
I think I've tried enough
We try again tomorrow
When the morning comes
And all the coffee's gone
The cigarettes all smoked
And all the matches burned
I will be thinking of her

She know that our time is only space
Time is never kind
But still we wind in case
The distant lines are long enough
To hold our breath and mute our touch
Still we soften up
Because we're over easy
When the morning comes
And all the roses bloom
Like an open wound
Scent of her perfume

She knows that our time is all a waste
She's got all the lines
She's tying up in vane
The distant lines are aren't long enough
And silence is her only bluff
And I've mind enough
To try again tomorrow
When the morning comes
When all that's old is new
I never take the clue
That she and I
We're never really through
A record spins in a room
I hear the crooked rain
On the window pane
Down on the tin overhang
And I'm a silence kid
Missing my summer babe
