The sky grows bigger every day
And the other week I hopped on the train
Cutting through state lines
To come to you as the crow flies
Out there in there offing everything was melon and orange
Did you know, my sweet
Yeah, that I once took the liberty of watching you in your sleep?
And I just wanted you to know
That every pool of water reminds me of you
Is that all right?
I hope you think it's cool
Yeah, sometimes a train can't go as fast as I want it to
Did you know, my sweet
Yeah, that I once took the liberty of watching you in your sleep?
I rolled over and over
Trying to touch your knees yeah, oh, underneath the sheets
Trying to touch your knees everything seemed a little easier
When we weren't one hundred miles apart
The person across from me
Sitting in her train seat, reminded me of you
And I looked out past her cheeks
Through the glass-light conduit
The sun had sunk
Disappeared into new jersey
Oh, why don't they have phones on these things?
What else can I do?
I'm still thinking about you.
Did you know, my sweet
Yeah, that I once took the liberty of watching you in your sleep?
I rolled over and over
Trying to touch your knees yeah, oh, underneath the sheets
