The Correspondent Songtext
von Hookworms

Flashbacks of cars and shadows and a long dead star
Salvation came and let me down
And I watched the floor fall reticent patience
I watched my dreams die before you left

I wasn′t there
But I'm not scared
That′s the star
You enjoyed from above

Head on sideways and out to the back of the head
And we can all understand the crash of a million
I'll wait as a friend with a plan


I wasn't there
And I wasn′t there
Yeah, I wasn′t there
But I'm not scared
That′s the star
You enjoyed from above

So I sat and smiled to the back of the head
Had a gaze on my tears in the echo from above
Yeah, I wasn't there (I wasn′t there)
Yeah, I wasn't there (I wasn′t there)
Yeah, I wasn't there (I wasn't there)
Yeah, I wasn′t there (I wasn′t there)
Yeah, I wasn't there
