Dogeared Page lyrics

I`m just a dog-eared page you turn back to.

Where`s the place for me

When we`re both in love with you?



I can`t escape these friends

I`ve made since you left town.

They throw redundant parties

where I`m too often found.

And while I sit and watch girls and boys

trade views of new tattoos

I wonder if it`s too late to call your mom

and catch up on some news.

She says you`ll be home soon for me -



And it`ll be just like you were never gone.

I`ll try to be just some guy you`re getting on.

But basically, we`re both in love with you.

I`m just a dog-eared page you turn back to.

Where`s the place for me,

when we`re both in love with you?



I`ve got these "friends" in quotes

and girls* with asterisks.

I watch the time whither

and fall from my wrist.

Out on the porch Van Morrison

is bleeding through the walls.

I don`t think your roommate

has been writing down my calls.

She says you`ll be home soon for me -



You said the distance

would make a difference,

But it didn`t.
