you’re drinking a beer at the bar on a Monday afternoon
reading a book and waiting for me to walk in
did you call me ‘cause you’re lonely?
or do you really wanna see me?
I don’t know, but at any rate, I’m on my way
to see you on the balcony standing there in a beam of July light
to wonder if you’re ever gonna touch me or even look at me right
to talk about the fact that you’re homesick for another life
to remind myself that I’m never gonna reach you, not quite
I can’t believe I worked this hard just to get back to the beginning
just for you to tell me again that these are my glory days
who made you the judge and the jury of this whole situation?
I don’t know, but I guess that means that I’m condemned
to see you on the balcony standing there in a beam of July light
to wonder if you’re ever gonna touch me or even look at me right
to talk about the fact that you’re homesick for another life
to remind myself that I’m never gonna reach you, not quite
our knocking knees and your lips on the corner of my mouth
I’m not sure how we got here, but we did
how do I give you a taste of your own medicine?
to make you feel just like I do about this?
‘cause I can’t tell if it’s hell or if it’s bliss
to see you on the balcony standing there in a beam of July light
to wonder if you’re ever gonna touch me or even look at me right
to talk about the fact that you’re homesick for another life
to remind myself that I’m never gonna reach you, not quite
