She Called (Peggy Sue)

The roads are all grey Like our city The lights they are as dim. The roads here stretch for miles like our city The nights are just as thin We'll raise our glasses high here We'll tell our tales as tall. But this city's already so full of bodies The beds they are all full. She called she said we're closer now That you're so far away. There's reason beyond reason now There oceans in our way. You had no claim I'd long since left your bed The water does no more than the words already said. They build their buidings high here They tell their tales as tall But this city's already so full of bodies It does not need one more This sofa will not hold my shape The spring they have no give. I miss your arms about my own A reminder I must be grown up and cold. I have a love that will linger Until I learn to live without it I have a love that will linger Until I learn to doubt it He said that I was pretty He said I'd do just fine But this body's already taken So taken I'm not sure it's even mine I'll keep on keeping on Till I've kept you for too long Oh I'll keep on keeping on Till I've kept you Draw a map across my eye lids Plot the route home through my veins Beg there feet t keep on moving Oh I'll fing my way again Your words mingled with salt Are only sweeter as I swallow Your voice across the water's so much easier to follow home.
