First Time Caller

(album: Big TV - 2013)

'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 a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you' [x2]

Falling, like trash from the sky
I hit a patchwork of loneliness
Cooked and wild
Hung from the stars
and dropped through the night
To a heatwave in hard placelessness
Neon and tired

And I've got nothing but time

She said 'I was a first time caller
But a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you...' [x2]

I want you to love me
More than I love you
Tell me if that's something you can do [x4]

First time caller, long time listener [x4]
