Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been saving messages
I've been saving messages
I don't know when they'll call again
Taking mental images
I've been saving messages
[Verse 2]
I've been decking out my place
Potted plants, bespoke bookcase
Pages of the ages I'll never be
Painted a wall, oh, did you see
I've been decking out my place?
[Verse 3]
Close your eyes and dream a dream
Where people never die
Where people never die
Does it change the meaning?
[Verse 4]
I've been calling restaurants
Just to see what's best that they've got
I don't order anything
It's quite rude and I should stop
I've been calling restaurants
[Verse 5]
I close my eyes and count to three
Or ten, or sometimes more
I tried sitting on the floor
Saying the same thing over and over
A phrase once gifted or possibly lifted
From an Americana Dalai Lama
If someone chants it too
Does it change the meaning?
[Verse 6]
Running out of memory
Relying on summary
Must conserve my energy
What a lovely century
The thought of you hit me again
I've been saving messages
