feverfew – selby lyrics

you pulled up, as if in a rush, and said, ‘i’ll give
you a ride. i saw you miss the bus.’i said, ‘thanks,
i’m looking to kill some time.’
‘i’ll take you to your house, or we could see mine.
it’s not very far and you’ll like it just fine.
you could leave this world behind.’
so, i stayed an hour, a day and then two.
maybe you’ll teach me the things that you know. but
it’s getting cold, i think we should go.

when the house was all boarded up, we said goodbye and
we climbed in your red pick-up truck. and we drove off
into the night. and i counted all the street lights as
you turned to me with a sigh and said, ‘i’m willing to
give it a try. we could be happy all over again, find a
place to begin.’
then it’s three months and we’re still not there.
and i’ve gotten thinner and you’ve grown your hair. and
we’re looking for home but i don’t think it’s here. and
if it’s september my birthday is near.
and you say there’s nothing that i have to fear. ‘we’ll
get it somehow. i just don’t have it right now.’
locked up the room and returned the key. and the
manager waved to us uneasily and we drove off into the
night. and i counted all the street lights, as you
turned to me with a sigh and said, ‘i’m still willing
to give us a try. we could be happy in outer sp-ce,
where all of our demons will soon be erased. in a small
quiet town we’ll start over again, find a place to
begin.’
but this road just goes on and on.
so, i said, ‘i’m sorry. i’ll miss you but i’ve stayed
too long. it’s time for me to go home.’
so, you drop me off at the light and i walk off into
the night, find a quarter and pick up the phone.
