lyrics

I get home and call your phone--it never lets me through,
But I will stay up late and wait for you.
You serve drinks to guys named Frank who say they're 22,
So I will stay up late and wait for you.

And I can sit and read the books you wrote.
And on the street cars flash shadows on the front wall,
And was that your foot upon the stair, was that your voice or just a passerby?

The bars are closing, the drunks are dozing, and I am dozing too.
But I will stay up late and wait for you.
