I've got a balcony in my new apartment I thought you'd like to know I've got a cat that sleeps in between my feet at night And a grip that I'm letting go I've got a pretty long fuse I've got some pretty tattoos I get a lot of good news And it all belongs to you too You bore a hole inside a life that didn't compromise and I now call that a memory Staring straight through what seemed an endless blue You were thinking of me You drew a pretty short straw You made a lot of tough calls I'm always thinking of you I can't ever make it up to you But I can always make a space for you Why don't you lay here Head on my shoulder You're the only reason I could ever get older I don't know how you survived it I don't think I'd have the strength now But I was there I am there all the time And time is a slippery disc And memory is all that's mine I can't ever make it up to you But I can always make a space for you Why don't you lay here Head on my shoulder You're the only reason I could ever get older
