Lyrics

I'm just a dog-eared page you turn back to
Where's the place for me
When we're both in love with you?

I can't escape these friends
I've made since you left town
They throw redundant parties
Where I'm too often found
And while I sit and watch girls and boys
Trade views of new tattoos
I wonder if it's too late to call your mom
And catch up on some news
She says you'll be home soon for me -

And it'll be just like you were never gone
I'll try to be just some guy you're getting on
But basically, we're both in love with you
I'm just a dog-eared page you turn back to
Where's the place for me
When we're both in love with you?

I've got these "friends" in quotes
And girls* with asterisks
I watch the time whither
And fall from my wrist
Out on the porch van morrison
Is bleeding through the walls
I don't think your roommate
Has been writing down my calls
She says you'll be home soon for me -

You said the distance
Would make a difference
But it didn't
