She said: Baby (Will you be forgetting me) He said: Darling (You're in my every thought) She said: maybe, but just in case the vapor rises (Take some of my forget-me-nots) He said: Darling (Will you be erasing me) She said: Baby (You're in my every dream) He said: call me if ever you are needing me (Or if a nightmare makes you scream) Far away (coast away the distance) Closer every minute Hide away In a pretty picture; grinning when he kisses her Missing him and missing her God, this must be real She said: Baby (Call me on the telephone) He said: Darling (I'm scheming all the time) She said: crazy, I miss you nights; I'm all alone (Tell me that you're always mine) He said: Darling (You got me for as long as you want) She said: perfect (I'll keep you in a jar) He said: hardly, it's cracking like my broken heart (And I just can't bear to be this) Far away (Coast away the distance) Closer every minute Hide away In a pretty picture; grinning when he kisses her Missing him and missing her God, this must be real Weeks that feel like years Crying lonely tears Cut in half this continent This misery should not be spent so Far away (Coast away the distance) Closer every minute Hide away In a pretty picture; grinning when he kisses her Missing him and missing her God, this must be Killing him inside Killing her inside Killing them inside God, this must be God, this must be God, this must be Real
