A therapy song written before I ever thought of performing. Should be Roy Orbison. I would love a real piano player, too. Oh, and the strings and choir and… Yeah, it was tough to record this stripped down. Feel naked.
lyrics
I’m getting home a bit too late
The spoon and plate
A place for one
The pasta is already done
The sauce may run
But still tastes great
You know I got your favorite cheese
They hadn’t had that brand for weeks
Ah, me
It seems I’m talking to the air again
Just as if you are there again
It’s like we used to share back when
We cared and then
It had to end
And no matter how the tempest blew
The words we spoke would pull us thru
But now I find I’m talking to the air again
There’s nothing on the tube tonight
Just something light
To make me smile
I haven’t seen this for a while
The comic style
Is sheer delight
Remember when we saw this first
It’s like a different universe
Ah, me
