Skyline

Everybody calling me
today wasn't you
Guess I must be hanging
out here in the blue by my lonesome.
Babe I wish you'd phone some
Alone on the train
I'm as free as a bird
but out there in the world it's like
you're in the earth

May not be the first
and I'm sure not the last
I've got a craving for a
thing of the past and
it's hitting me hard
I don't know, I could be bored
The Santa Ana's blowing
and it's calming me down but it's like
you're in the air when I get into town

When we were young
did we know the difference
I can't recall
the weight of my words
and we're both older now
hanging our heads to the ground
but you're still in my skyline
and I think I'm in yours

I grew a garden for the both of us
It turned into weeds, dirt, and dust
I tried but I knew
I couldn't stay there for you

I'm pushing down the line and
no matter my will
it just wouldn't bend
and I couldn't stand still

Maybe slowing down with a heavier heart
but you don't want me begging you into the dark

When we were young
did we know the difference
I can't recall
the weight of my words
and we're both older now
hanging our heads to the ground
but you're still in my skyline
and I think I'm in yours

you're still in my skyline
and I think I'm in yours
