You took the long way through town
Just getting there
We have looked all around
But you're not to be found
Not anywhere
There where different departs of the strange elements
In your ??
A ragged sweater and jeans and a long leather coat
As red as fire
Footsteps down the hall
A not so distant call

Crooked fingers embracing a long crooked branch
Pointing this way
Through the walls and the floor
Right through the bed
Where we once laid
I used to fall down your stairs without feeling a thing
But gratitude
Now it hurts just to crawl when I'm down on my knees
Watching you
Footsteps down the hall
A not so distant call
Footsteps down the hall
A not so distant call

Come live
Come live with me
Come live with me
Come live
Come live with me
Come live with me
Come live
Come live with me
Come live with me
Come live
Come live with me
Come live with me
Come live
Come live with me
Come live with me
