It crawls up when you think of me and smile
A single memory of an only child
It brings you back to when we were alone
Your naked photographs are safe in stone

And only god above me, I swear, you don't love me at all
My cloths in pavement care so your ware, it don't mean
nothing at all
It sneaks up when you dial the telephone, it sways in silent
ways
That you belong
I say it with a vengeance you know you don't belong
Ask anyone they'll tell you you never were pulling that
strong

Yet, again I see you at your nights
It won't work if you try to dim the lights

But everywhere I go there's your colored bow, where I go, I
don't know,
There's no room for another hope
Contagious with affection, I don't really favor your
Words of regret with your hints of a threat
And lonely god above me, I plead, better lonely than
Life with your rope on our slippery slope

But lover, it's another way to go
I'll go if you go
I don't belong
I don't want you to leave me alone
Your eyes despise me like a disease
I know you'll never leave
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
Don't be long
