I hung up the phone, And then I went home, Knowing you were still thinking of me; I lay down for the night, And I turned out the light, But I knew you were thinking of me; So I lit up a candle Took a book from the mantle, And I read of the Antarctic Sea; And I tried to erase The imprint of your [...]
