Western Union Desperate (Acoustic)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I felt a little uneasy on easy street Out of place and incomplete Call it guilt, call it what you will Kissed goodbye the summer skies Hollywood and Malibu tides Through thick and thin, you got a good friend in me [Chorus] Just give me a beer and give me a bed Give me a pill all for my head Play me a song and sing me to sleep Meet me in the middle of my dreams [Verse 2] Well, I've seen the sun rise from the cliffs of Point Reyes And I've seen it set upon Thunder Bay But I always keep my compass set on you When the night comes in and the stars come out And the highway lines start to wear me out It'll be okay 'cause I'm coming back home to you [Bridge] Distant salutations and silly souvenirs Can't help your twilight loneliness or brush away your tears I'll wire you some love today There's so much more I want to say But I'm Western Union desperate in a payphone in the rain And it's so insane, I'm Rimbaud and you're Verlaine [Chorus] So hey, California, here I come I've got my old backpack and a sunburnt thumb I hope my compass is tried and true 'Cause when I need a friend, it's still you Oh, when I need a friend, it's still you
