Текстове на песни: Mountain Goats, The. New Star Song.

i hung pictures of you from every lamp post in town

as the humidity climbed into numbers i don't care to repeat

the air was heavy and the sky was alive

and the pacific starlight train wasn't due in till 11.45



chorus

i thought about how cold you must be

i thought about things i thought that i'd soon be forgetting

i thought of you up in canada as the lightning storm lit up

all downtown redding



there were teenagers in mini-trucks coming around every corner

you can taste the adrenaline, coming out through their skin

i came to the well-lit doorway of a sheet music store

saw my face in the glass. sat down in the doorway and i settled in.
