and a lot of miles behind us...
Does the alcohol make you a better person?
And does a call home maybe absolve the distance
between... I don’t know?
Well if it would,
come four a.m.
when stumbling drunk
I'd pull your number from this mess of a memory
to relapse in nonsense and explain. Will you hear me?
I doubt you're awake,
but if it's all the same,
then I won't say I need this;
we both know that I might not mean it.
I doubt that you've stayed,
but if you're still awake,
won't you listen for the phone?
A long overdue call home.
