SIGN IN A STRANGER With Ricky Ross

lyrics

SIGN IN A STRANGER


I imagine that every man gets free
Your letters lie unopened on a chair
I imagine that when you grow tired of me
All my attitudes come too much to bear
And the sky turns black
It's plotted on record
You won't be back when the storm clouds clear

I imagine that they've got snow in France
And the night is bright enough to ski
I imagine that you hold a man in a kind of dance
And he lies to you then you lie to me
And the band is back, they've got it on record
That same sad track you love to hear

Postman, postman don't be slow
Be like me and go man go
S.W.A.L.K.- sealed with a kiss
Scent rubbed on the pages from the joints on your wrist
The look in the classroom what was it you said
When you came up beside me in the bicycle sheds?
I'm walking behind you, I'm climbing the stairs
Watching the light through the folds of your hair
Building up like storms, bursting in mid air

I imagine that when the lawyer comes
In his salesman's coat wrapped round a Thomas Clancy ream
I imagine that he'll set the long division sums
And close the case on some poor boy's dream
Then he'll turn his Cadillac to make the next rendezvous
With that same sad track on the radio
