Losing Days

from Back to the Old House by Sawmill

/

lyrics

If you’re ever feeling lonely,
Give me a call,
I’m the distraction,
From the image of your life that,
You never could,
Quite fit me into.
Just another day in my shoes,
When you decide,
That I could help you,
Fix a problem that you’d never,
Tell me about,
If I would ask you.

These keys that don’t open any doors,
You collect and you’re looking for more.

What am I supposed to do with,
All of the days,
Clouding my judgement?
Playing conversations in the,
Back of my head,
When I am working.
Trying not to see the time I,
Know that it’s been,
Less than I’m thinking.
Getting good at making small talk,
Losing the days,
Caught in a cycle.

These keys that don’t open any doors,
You collect with no sign of remorse.

Oh Mother Mary have you known,
All along?
That I’d get in up to my neck,
Then sink deeper.
Shall I just wait by the phone for,
Your call?
You know that I’ve always enjoyed,
Playing the fool.
