First Time Caller

Darling, we're starting, she said

We go alive in a heartbeat

Waiting for something in my car

A little hope out of nothing

And through the hum on the line

She said I was a first time caller

But long time listener

I've been waiting a while to talk to you

She said I was a first time caller

But long time listener

I've been waiting a while to talk to you

Falling like trash from the sky

I hit a patchwork of loneliness, crooked and wild

Hung from the stars

And dropped through the night

To a heatwave in hard placelessness

Neon and tired

And I got nothing but time

She said I was a first time caller

But long time listener

I've been waiting a while to talk to you

She said I was a first time caller

But long time listener

I've been waiting a while to talk to you

I want you to love me

More than I love you

Tell me if that's something you can do

I want you to love me

More than I love you

Tell me if that's something you can do

First time caller, long time listener

First time caller, long time listener

First time caller, long time listener

First time caller, long time listener
