Almost

I almost dialed your number when I thought the coast was clear

'Cause it's looked up for so long at me

And said, call me please

But the place was closing

The counter girl turned the sign

The cooks were getting their coats

And I got mine

And said goodnight to the sea of empty seats

And if I am a sailor

You are the warm gulf wind

And you've blown in to this little port and roused my dreams again

I see my mouth moving when I talk to you

I do

I see my lips and I feel like a kid

Who can't keep something hid

'Cause I've been under the paper you were writing on

You left your impression long after you'd gone on me

Marks only I can see

And if I am a sailor

You are the warm gulf wind

And you've blown in to this little port and roused my dreams again

When we say sometime later

You know that we don't say when

You have blown in to this little port and roused my dreams again

I almost dialed your number when I thought the coast was clear

'Cause it's looked up for so long at me

And said, call me please

And if I am a sailor

You are the warm gulf wind

And you've blown in to this little port and roused my dreams again

When we say sometime later

You know that we don't say when

You have blown in to this little port and roused my dreams again

Roused my dreams

Sailor to wind
