Alight

You were talking about moving to the west coast About leaving the lone star for the golden state My California is full of ghosts And I guess you're just another one that haunts me from time to time You stayed late at my house that night After all of my friends had left And you know how much I love you So you stay as late as you want And I opened your letter put it in my box Your smile lights up the room Even the darkest of rooms you're there And suddenly it's all Beautiful My friends were talking about you They say you've gotten hot but you've always been We're looking out with your telescope You see the stars and all the light I just see the darkness You're kinda crazy But I guess I love that about you And you're blind but you're kind You always mean well And you sat there in that coffee shop Saying that I never call you enough But did you know that if I pick up the phone I'll fall back in and I won't get out And you meant the whole world to me You were the whole library But I think that I was just a book All worn out and up on the shelf You pick me up in your car It's 10:30 on a Saturday You pick me up in your car
