empty picture frame

jets to brazil

i just found the frame

where i took your picture away

in my wallet

like a saint from some other place

that picture repays

my eyes as they glaze

a thousand lashes

from a love long gone away

i'll know that you're gone for good

when the dawn kicks me awake

i'll dress and move on put on what i can take

so take and get on you sweet thing

there's a phone call aimed at me tonight

here it comes

out go my lights

leave me nowhere far out of sight

now i've got the frame

and some baggage i claimed

i came home to

a world sadly changed

so i got stoned

'til i thought this house was a home

but when i came down

i found myself alone

i'll know that you're gone for good

when the dawn kicks me alive

i know we'll go on somehow we'll both survive

so take and get on you sweet thing

tonight you'll find me alone and getting high

up we float

down i fly

leave me nowhere

far out of sight

leave me nowhere

far out of sight

you leave me nowhere

far out of sight
