| I know the empty way you stare, with your hands caught where they ain’t supposed to be, you talk your way out, walk your way out. A wink, a nod, it’s understood. You lean back on the hood. You give away the very thing I’ll never own. Maybelline, don’t the stars look the same? Maybelline, when nobody knows your given name? All I’ll ever want to do is wait for you. I drive the car, I drive for hours through fallow fields of nothing plowed for something, left to fall back into seed. I’d leave you flat out if I could, but you know I never would. I need you more than anyone should ever need. Maybelline, don’t the stars look the same? Maybelline, when nobody knows your given name? All I’ll ever want to do is wait for you. Wait for you, Maybelline Talk all about it on the phone. Nobody wants to be alone. Can I stand up and take it on the chin? Gather my will to start again? So I cut the engines, kill the lights be well my darling, night will find you sleeping, morning wakes you on your own. Maybelline, don’t the stars look the same? Maybelline, when nobody knows your given name? Maybelline, glass in your hair. Maybelline, lipstick and stockings everywhere. All I’ll ever want to do is wait for you. |
