Pedestal — текст песни (The Softies)

driving the same road not much to see
going toward weather more suited to me
ending this whole thing by waving my hand
I hope that you don`t forget what we planned
for years down the road
when we both grow old
but we don`t have time for that now

so you stay here and I`ll go on
but I`m leaving this pedestal empty to put you upon

dates and persimmons are filling the room
not leaving space for my sorrow and gloom
I`m glad you`re not here so don`t try to be
I like you just how you are around me
even though I don`t have much time
we don`t have to finish this now

so you stay here and I`ll go on
but I`ll think about us playing house everyday
that I`m gone

you say what she said it sounds just as wrong
maybe it`s best that I didn`t stay long
