Cornerstone I thought a saw you in the Battle Ship but it was only a look alike She was nothing but a vision trick Under the warning light She was close Close enough to be your ghost But my chances turned to toast When I asked her if I could call her your name
I thought I saw you in the Rusty Hook Huddled up in a wicker chair I wandered over for a closer look And kissed whoever was sitting there She was close And she held me very thightly Till I asked awfully politetly 'Please, can I call you her name?'
And I elongated my lift home And I let him go the long way round I smell your scent on the seatbelt And kept my shortcuts to myself
I thought I saw you in the Parrots Beak Messing with a smoke alarm
It was too loud for me to hear her speak And she had a broken arm It was close So close that the walls were wet And she wrote out and later said 'No, you can't call me her name'
Tell me where's your hiding place I'm worried Ill forget your face And I've asked everyone I'm begining to think I imagined you all along I elongated my lift home Yeah I let him go the long way round I smelt your scent on the seatbelt And kept my shortcuts to myself
I saw your sister in the cornerstone On the phone to the middle man When I saw that she was on her own I though she might understand She was close Well you couldnt get much closer She said 'I'm really not supposed to But yes! you can call me anything you want'
