Linoleum

(Why would you wait so long?)

A calming voice

hijacks your train of thought,

says 'we'll get away with it if we don't get caught'

Not staying put

nor on the run,

just two steps glues right down to the linoleum

And people say the strangest things

when they don't know who they're talking to

Sometimes i think of jumping in

like it was something i was born to do

And from up on Telegraph Hill

the blurring vision spoils the view

and we've been dying to meet you

My love, don't mess around,

we'll change our clothes on the bus into town.

And is it all the same to you that we've been living strange,

in the image of the saints from which we took our names?

And people say the strangest things

when they don't know who they're talking to

Sometimes I think of jumping in

like it was something i was born to do

And from up on Telegraph Hill

the blurring vision spoils the view

and we've been dying to meet you

Cause all I've known; borrowed time.

All I've known; borrowed time.

All I've known; borrowed time.

All I've known is borrowed time.

And people say the strangest things

when they don't know who they're talking to

Sometimes i think of jumping in

like it was something i was born to do

And from up on Telegraph Hill

the blurring vision spoils the view

and we've been dying to meet you.

Dying to meet you.

Dying to meet you.
