lyrics

I just wish you’d call me
Leave a message - A voice - A whisper
A note that hinted you still cared

Now I need a plane ride
To a mountain top hotel
We could pretend that we call it home

now I need a rain coat – duck feather these tear stains
Save some face here - Show friends I don’t care
Call myself a badass

I wish were giants - in a smaller world
No need to be closer
We’d still call 1,000 miles next door

Hit you up on our tin cans
Sneak though each other's windows
Leaving no tears, only the salts of our sweat - on our pillows

Just give me a phone call – or hand me a guitar –
a harp sling or something like inspiration

I’d take a whisper, a “talk to you later”
But for now, the busy signal wins this one…
