I thought about you when I was sitting at the bar about an hour before they shut it down ice cubes melting the bartender flirting with the blonde twins at the other end I didn't want a friend 'cause I had the Doors on the jukebox and you on my mind I'm lost and I can't find my way out of this one I'm dazed in a maze thinking up ways to signal you home but you're mute in Beirut and I'm all out of skipping stones and good luck pennies I'm eating French toast alone on a Saturday in a downtown Denny's healthy people move on and glow go through the motions with somebody else everyone grab your partner ooopsy daisy he fell down find a new partner he stepped on my toes get a new partner he keeps looking at that girl with the cute ears there's his new partner everyone here is partner crazy, apparently I'm sitting this one out looking out the stained glass window because this bar is a church with stale communion I'm not blissed out but maybe I've got two clear eyes or maybe I'm surprised that surrounded by all this glory I'm still seeing you on every screen there is no meaning I'm dazed in a maze thinking up ways to signal you home but you're home already and I am alone. |
