i like the way
you say my name
the way you
stretch out
the middle vowels
so there's a smile
on your face
but you live
so far away
i wish that i could just
pick you up and put you
in a closer place
lauren
when will i
see you again?
when will i
finally get back to you?
well i hope that it's soon
half the country
isn't nearly far enough to
cancel the connection
which has quickly grown
between us
and i feel every mile
that is keeping you from me
and i can't wait until
they melt away
beneath your airplane seat
and i hate all
the dallas boys
who fumbled with
your heart
because i'd do just
the opposite
if we weren't
so far apart
