lyrics

I’m tuning in some far of distant station tonight
Those funny imamate waves are keeping me company tonight
There's a north star in my amplifier

The sheets like sand have captured our outlines
As our clothes still fondle on the floor
& it’s a bitch wonderin where you have gone
Giant fingerprints left at the scene

But I'm here on the other side of town, In a hotel room
Where cars paint their headlights on the wall
& trains float silent over silver rails
Meanwhile inside she's still so graeful

Brightness comes thru the darkest shade, as your figure floats over me
& have you ever been so astonished?
That you’ve forgotten where you have gone

But I'm here on the other side of town, In a hotel room
Where cars paint their headlights on the wall
& trains float silent over silver rails
Meanwhile inside she's still so graceful
