You can go out dancing And I'll write about you, dancing without you And I'll shed a tear between my legs
When you were here, I missed you Now that you're away I'm out there without you And I shed a tear between my legs
Though we live in the same city, You live in another state far away from me and all of my unfaded charms But when the rocket ships all fall, and the bridges, they all buckle And everybody's packing up their station wagons There's a number you can call, like a breast that you can suckle And we quietly will exit as it all is happening
Again, I'm afraid of one thing, Will I walk away from love knowing nothing, wearing my heart between my legs? But when I know you're naked lying on the bed while I'm at the piano All I can say is I can't fake it
When the rocket ships all fall, and the bridges, they all buckle And everybody's packing up their station wagons There's a number you can call, like a breast that you can suckle And we quietly will exit as it all is happening again 'Cause there's a river running underground, underneath the town towards the sea, That only I know all about On which from this city we can flee On which from this city we can flee
