|
I fell for you in your attic |
|
Over the hum and grind of afternoon traffic |
|
We should be pleased to have shared the breeze or a bus |
|
Now you ask what was the fuss |
|
It was the tone of your letter |
|
And the fit of herringbone sweater |
|
You know it's true, |
|
I would sell this shelf full of records |
|
For a ride to your affection |
|
All these delays and transferred planes |
|
Oh I would number the days and time zone changes |
|
Another mountain range and I'm headed south again |
|
Back to the Blue Ridge and the red, red clay |
|
And I'd rather be resting in your arms |
|
Than this window seat |
|
Where everything's clear and warm |
|
In the stratosphere in these heated chairs |
|
Oh the thin, thin air |
|
I just wanna be down there |
