lyrics

Maybe stuck's not the right word
I heard so-and-so is still in town
And my friends at the Cat & Mouse
Will buy me a drink if I come around
I still recall her gentle sigh
Saying wake up, the sun is up high
Like a happy and sad song rolled into one
Old boy sweating through his good suit
Sarcastic whistling filling the room
Still he tells me the point is moot
'Cause once she'd run down all smiles
From the top of the stairs
But what happens if you don't miss someone
When they're not there
Last night he slept under a plywood sheet
Leaned it against a fence
Tonight the strands of her long hair
Would float to the floor while she danced
What's one more grain of sand in a desert of regret
Find a garbage bag, wrap yourself up
Take the next bus home
I'll carry on, it's all the way in
Wish me luck buckaroo
It's looking real grim
Little shoulder in the palm of my hand
Her presence alone bored me to no end
Through what may come, by and by
I'll think of her saying
Wake up the sun is up high
