ARSONISTS

A call from a phone booth
In heaven knows where
It rings on and on
But nobody’s there
Sometimes we’re saved
By the simplest things
A moon in the sky
While a telephone rings

A rundown cafe
On the backside of town
A warm shot of bourbon
To help the food down
The waitress is pretty
She looks out of place
Thinking of you
While I look in her face

Partners in crime
It’s almost insane
We burn ourselves down
And pray for the rain
Partners in time
We’re arsonists all
Stand there amazed
As the Temple does fall
Some things don’t come back again

A call from a phone booth
In heaven knows where
It rings on and on
But, I really don’t care
Sometimes we’re saved
By the simplest things
A moon in the sky
While a telephone rings
On and on

Partners in crime
It’s almost insane
We burn ourselves down
And pray for the rain
Partners in time
We’re arsonists all
Stand there amazed
As the Temple does fall
Some things don’t come back again
