She's in love with a photograph
And the idea things could last
Goddamn I never thought of that
My goddamn heart is frozen in the past
Well she could thaw it with her hands, she said
And I could thaw her frozen body in bed
Well we could find someone else instead
So our minds don't freeze in our warming heads (?)
And I hear in Texas it gets hot as sh**
And I know Kansas 'cause I burn in it
And she's in love with a photograph
And it somehow reminds her that
She shouldn't f** around
She doesn't need them in her life right now
Wish I could say the same thing for myself
Wish I could tell her that there was no one else
500 miles didn't seem so long
My legs are tired but my mind is strong
And I'm in love with the telephone
Can make me feel like I'm not alone
I didn't mean to wake you up
Your dreams are more important than us
And were you only dreaming about me
I hope you thought I'd like to sleep
And in those reasons … (?)
See that they don't equal love
She said, "That's easier for you
But I don't ever want it to be like that."
