I should go out and honk the horn
it's Independence Day
instead I just pour
myself a drink
it's got to be love
I've never felt this way
oh baby
this one's from the heart
The shadows on the wall
look like a railroad track
I wonder if he's ever coming back
The moon is a yellow stain
across the sky
oh baby
this one's from the heart
Maybe I'll go down to the corner
and get a racing form
but I should probably wait here
by the phone
and the brakes need adjustment
on the convertible
oh baby
this one's from the heart
The worm is climbing
the avocado tree
rubbing its back against the wall
I pour myself a double sympathy
oh baby
this one's from the heart
Blondes brunettes and redheads
put the hammer down
To pound a cold chisel
through my heart.
but they were nothing but apostrophes
oh baby
this one's from the heart
I can't tell
is that a siren or a saxophone
but the roads get so slippery when it rains
I love you more than all these words can ever say
oh baby
this one's from the heart
