[00:00.00]	作曲 : Means, Ruess
[00:12.67]	So the wind that blows across your room
[00:15.86]	Carried cheap perfume onto your dresser
[00:18.90]
[00:22.01]	It rained for jewelry and for credit cards
[00:25.13]	Two tickets to a film i dont remember
[00:29.20]
[00:32.01]	One day youll kiss your rabbits nose pick up the phone
[00:36.56]	To find ive been turned over
[00:39.05]
[00:42.30]	And youll grab that piece of gold
[00:44.74]	Only to find that the smell has taken over
[00:48.79]	Now all the things you had they arent the same
[00:53.35]
[00:54.47]	As what you hold
[00:56.84]
[01:04.82]	Im standing in a room
[01:06.95]	Its filled with older folks pleading "baby listen"
[01:09.28]
[01:14.77]	And i scream as loud as anyone
[01:16.70]
[01:17.21]	But when asked to make a point i tend to whisper
[01:22.08]
[01:24.56]	Now highways turn to tidal waves
[01:27.18]	Theyre asking me to export all of your insecurities
[01:31.96]
[01:34.58]	But that wind that blows across your room
[01:37.26]	Its gonna set the sails and send me back to you
[01:40.88]
[01:49.62]	Sometimes when sailors are sailing
[01:55.61]	They think twice about where theyre anchoring
[02:00.60]	And i think i could make better time of my time on land
[02:08.89]
[02:10.14]	Ill drink less
[02:13.82]	Cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss
[02:19.18]	Instead of a cold goodbye
[02:22.24]
[02:23.12]	Im writing the folks back home to tell them
[02:28.04]	"hey im doing alright"
[02:32.55]
[02:41.91]	Its a shame what your father did to your brothers head
[02:45.72]	He smashed it with a telephone
[02:49.53]
[02:51.34]	And your mother got scared and locked the door
[02:54.02]	You were only four but lord you remember it
[02:57.76]
[03:00.63]	So now youre scared of love
[03:03.31]	Im here to tell you loves not some fucking blood on the reciever
[03:06.34]
[03:10.39]	Love is speaking in code
[03:12.89]	Its an inside joke
[03:14.57]	Love is coming home
[03:19.12]
[03:21.31]	Sometimes when sailors are sailing
[03:24.68]
[03:25.92]	They think twice about where theyre anchoring
[03:29.73]
[03:30.73]	And i think i could make better time of my time on land
[03:37.66]
[03:38.84]	Ill drink less
[03:42.09]	Cause lord knows i could use a warm kiss
[03:46.70]	Instead of a cold goodbye
[03:50.28]	Im writing the folks back home to tell them
[03:54.40]	"hey im doing alright"
[03:58.64]	Yeah im doing just fine
[04:04.16]
[04:07.47]	And if she seems as lonely as me
[04:11.64]	Let her sink
[04:14.88]
[04:16.57]	"hey im doing alright"
[04:18.69]
[04:21.37]	Yeah im doing just fine
[04:23.68]
[04:25.49]	And if she seems as lonely as me
[04:31.16]	Let her sink
[04:34.47]	Let her sink
[04:36.72]	Let her sink
