I`ve lived in all of the houses he`s built The one in the air The one underground The one on the water The one in the sand He says: It doesn`t matter how we live He says: It doesn`t matter where we live We`re so close we can dispense with houses We don`t need a home at all
It`s come to be a habit with me to dine alone You`re never home And the evenings end so early He says: we can be close from afar He says: the closest people always are We`re so close that in our separation, There`s no distance at all.
Sometimes I gout to the car, Turn on the headlights Intending to leave- Sometimes I need to hear the words, My imagination`s not as strong as you`d believe- But I`ve talked to you; You haven`t listened at all. I`ve said I`m numb, I can`t even cry, I`m stuck with acting out a part. He says: what do words ever reveal? He says: in speaking one can be so false- We`re so close we have a silent language, We don`t need words at all.
There`s a husky voice That speaks to me in the dark And on the phone from studios And Westside bars, Through tunnels of long distance. He says: we`re beyond flowers He says: We`re beyond compliments- We`re so close we can dispense with love We don`t need love at all.
