Lauren - Quarterbacks

I like the way

You say my name

The way you

Stretch out

The middle vowels

So there’s a smile

On your face

But you live

So far away

I wish that I could just

Pick you up and put you

In a closer place

Lauren

When will I

See you again?

When will I

Finally get back to you?

Well I hope that it’s soon

Half the country

Isn’t nearly far enough to

Cancel the connection

Which has quickly grown

Between us

And I feel every mile

That is keeping you from me

And I can’t wait until

They melt away

Beneath your airplane seat

And I hate all

The Dallas boys

Who fumbled with

Your heart

Because I’d do just

The opposite

If we weren’t

So far apart
