I am calling
From a hotel
In the middle of palm springs
I am hungover as a dog
And I hate everything
And my recall
Of arrival
Is hazy at its best
Well anyway I love you babe
Etc. all the rest
There is a picture
Although blurry
Of a mountain to the east
Maybe we could go there someday
I don't know, what do you think?
I hear the view up there
Can take away your breath
Well anyway, I love you babe
Etc. all the rest
I know that it's late but
I had to get you on the line
I just wanted you to know
I think about you all the time
And I ain't ever been the kind
To wear my heart out on my sleeve
But here I go tryin my best
Well anyway, I love you babe
Etc. all the rest
I guess the last time that we spoke
I was Oklahoma bound
It was a thousand miles ago
And there was snow there on the ground
It reminded me of Christmas
And your head there on my chest
Well anyway, I love you babe
Etc all the rest
I know that it's late but
Maybe you'll pick up this time
I just wanted you to know
That if i could I'd make things right
And I ain't ever been the kind
To wear my heart out on my sleeve
But here I go tryin my best
Well anyway, I love you babe
Etc. all the rest
Watchin those taillights from my front porch
Yeah i remember that
Cause that's exactly when
I started hopin you'd come back
And I know it's too late
But i had to get you on the line
I just wanted you to know
I think about you all the time
I know that you said
Just go on and live your life
So here I go tryin my best
Well anyway, I love you babe
Etc. all the rest
