Red Line

All alone again, phone forgot to ring

Even if it did, I doubt that it would be for me

Bedside table photographs of you

Half smoked cigarettes remember something too good to be true

And you called me and told me you were home

Watching movies with your friends while I sit by the phone

I guess I'll have another cigarette

Guess I'll write another song

If I could be anything, I'd be an aeroplane

And then I'd fly so far away

Five hundred miles

So that you could look at me that way

The ceiling is so lonely

When it's all that you can see

Lying here on my back thinking of your smile

And the next time you'll show it to me

And I can't help being jealous of your room

When you're in it all alone

And I can't help being jealous of your friends

When you're having fun and I'm stuck here at home

I took the El today

And everything reminded me of you

I remember when we sat on the steps

Eating popsicles that turned your lips blue

I knew it then and I know it now

My favorite dream has come true

I knew it then and I know it now

I love you so much and I'll never meet another like you
