blame it on a broken phone calling on the birds in tow
I'll come into my sense when you come into your own
thanking with a calmly word, paint on forgiving hearts
wrap it in your over coat, you hold her for
(chorus)
all the kids are heading out, cover up you ears they say
soon we're gonna take you down, nobody believes you now
all the brides? walking away, seven long years we stay
wouldn't it be so beige? living on the medium way
maybe I knew all along it was the sound of you calling my name
don't you hear me calling out, do you want to lie me down
i'm banging on your feet from underground, the grass is turning my lights out
tell me the beginning and I'll tell you the end
you can start over and start again
(chorus)
all the kids are heading out, cover up you ears they say
soon we're gonna take you down, nobody believes you now
all the brides? walking away, seven long years we stay
wouldn't it be so beige? living on the medium way
maybe I knew all along it was the sound of you calling
way way out there, I don't know if I can sleep, it's 3 in the morning
