lyrics

I keep two clocks above my sink
One tells me when you're waking up
I brush my teeth and try to think
Of your hand around my cup

The phone gets warm against my cheek
You yawn and I could cry
Six thousand miles inside a week
We live inside goodbye

Stay on the line, stay on the line
Fall asleep inside my ear
Stay on the line, stay on the line
Static sounds like you are here
Stay on the line, stay on the line
Don't hang up, the night is long
Stay on the line, stay on the line
Your breathing is my favorite song

You sent your jacket in the mail
I wear it till the cuffs go grey
The smell of you is going stale
So call before it fades away

One day there won't be time zones left
One bed, one door, one key
I'm saving up my every breath
To spend it slow on you and me

Stay on the line, stay on the line
Your breathing is my favorite song
Stay on the line, stay on the line
Stay on, stay on, stay on
