arizona calling - machinery of the human heart lyrics
[verse 1]
it’s midnight in new jersey
and we are not who we were
i reach out for you in my sleep
wake up and shiver in the heat of summer
in fever dreams, i make believe
that you were mine to hold
but maybe i should cut it out
i’m twenty*six years old
[verse 2]
i know i haven’t talked about how much my daydreams hurt
and if i’m honest with myself, i’m slipping under and it’s getting worse
they talk about sending me back to tucson on a plane
and if they don’t i might just leave on my own anyways
[verse 3]
it sucks to think that we were just more trouble than it’s worth
and who was i to boldly claim you were my greater surgeon on this earth?
you left me on the gurney as they wheeled me down the hall
gently telling me to hush because you weren’t there at all
[verse 4]
and i don’t think i could tell you
cause i don’t think you could take
that i was told i called your name
while friends and family tried to keep me awake
though you were never there for me
it makes sense just the same
they say you see the one you love
before your vision fades
[verse 5]
and i hope that you forget my face
by your wedding day
sometimes the people from your past are meant to be
and better off that way
but arizona’s calling me with pink and purple skies
i leave at six a.m. and i won’t even say goodbye
[verse 6]
my friend jesse helped me settle in
but there’s still more to do
i can’t afford the trip back home
to see you even if i wanted to
but arizona’s beautiful
you’d love the desert sky
sometimes i wish i didn’t leave
without saying goodbye
