No Show - Bishop Allen

I was so cold

Kept the watch though

Count down every breath

Catch my chilly death

Waited hours

Wilted flowers

Though my feet are stone

Walked home all alone

I guess I’m letting you go

Filled the grand stand

Called the big band

Drilled them through the night

Just to get it right

And the crowd there

In their lawn chairs

Learned your favorite song

How to sing along

I guess I’m calling it off

I only wanted to talk

And I know this

Everything I have and everything I ever will I will trade for a minute with you

Hope you notice

Everywhere I go I’m gonna leave another message for you.

I’m sorry

You’re a no show

Shows what I know

God damn every plan

Try and understand

You’re a no show

I will wait though

After it is done

Cold light of the sun

I guess I’m calling it off

I only wanted to talk
