I'll arrive one day- well dressed and half awake
With improved diction, quoting European fiction
I was poor in love. I was poor in wealth.
But I was okay in everything else there was.
And I believe this is the long distance call.

It's not the truth that you make
That's got us feeling low.
Spending money on cereal,
Spending money on hoes.
And I won't forget
The way you held me up when I was down
But your life's work is making me hurt
Whether you mean to or not

Friends don't stay forever,
Some things don't get better.
Still, I've had these days with you.
