When you've been filed in the wrong category And both your dog and your cat agree That you shouldn't be alone Take a leaf from a different tome Place a wreath on your empty home And pick up the phone Just because I hold you, dear Just because I need you here Just because I'm see-through Just because I miss you From the clouds brewing over you To the leaves rotting under you In the death-fed stew of life From the mud fields of the steeplechase To the bloodstains on my delsey case I'm in this race Just because I hold you, dear Just because I need you here Just because I'm see-through Just because I miss you From the bottles by the hedgerow To the moss on my gravestone From the dawn to the setting sun From the end to when it all begun From these pictures of ourselves To the dust on these shelves
