I Am Always The One Who Calls

(album: The Only Reason I Feel Secure - 1999)

Satellites mediate for us the day's events
Through fiber optics
I hope we can change the same
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope

Clear as a bell are the short breaths
That you take when you're distracted
Same as the way that you roll your eyes
When I ask too many stupid questions

My faith in zeros and ones to host our romance
Rests on hope you gave that
I've some claim to your heart

I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope
I wouldn't mind, but you are my only hope

Clear as a bell are the short breaths
That you take when you're distracted
Same as the way that you roll your eyes
When I've asked too many questions

I will call you in three weeks
Maybe then you'll have some more to say
