Empty Picture Frame

(álbum: Four Cornered Night - 2000)

I just found the frame
Where I took your picture away
In my wallet
Like a saint from some other place
That picture repays
My eyes as they glaze
A thousand lashes
From a love long gone away

I'll know that you're gone for good
When the dawn kicks me awake
I'll dress and move on put on what I can take
So take and get on you sweet thing

There's a phone call aimed at me tonight
Here it comes, out go my lights
Leave me nowhere far out of sight

Now I've got the frame
And some baggage I claimed
I came home to
A world sadly changed
So I got stoned
'Til I thought this house was a home
But when I came down
I found myself alone

I'll know that you're gone for good
When the dawn kicks me alive
I know we'll go on somehow we'll both survive
So take and get on you sweet thing

Tonight you'll find me alone and getting high
Up we float, down I fly
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
You leave me nowhere, far out of sight
