Morris County Blues
Dave Melillo

aim high
but shoot low
our mission is to bring this monster down with one swift blow
think fast
but move slow
none of my thoughts are intact staring back at the tracks on the trail of an angel

no one should ever be so young
slighted by the treason of your tongue
coz now this scene has played itself out and it wore me down as well
i can't dissipate without a fight
coz you were the first one in my life to make me feel like i was more that what i am

your number's out of service at least that's what they say
but i know that you forgot about me and you'd like to keep it that way
in the morning i'll be leaving for home
in 24 hours i'll be talking to you over the phone
got nothing to lose but myself
and i'm growing sick and tired of comparing you to everyone else
you fall through like the sand in a sieve
i need to know the answer coz i'm hanging by a thread as it is

word spreads fast around this town
they all know what's going down
i've only been here for a day but now i've got the update
it's rather clear that you moved on
but all i need is just a notice that it's over
coz you still occupy my mind

your number's out of service at least that's what they say
but i know that you forgot about me and you'd like to keep it that way
in the morning i'll be leaving for home
in 24 hours i'll be talking to you over the phone
got nothing to lose but myself
and i'm growing sick and tired of comparing you to everyone else
you fall through like the sand in a sieve
i need to know the answer coz i'm hanging by a thread as it is

i've battled with this long enough
i should take the hint and realise that my luck's run out
but this summer's so much hotter
and so do you get every year
i travel back with hope that i've found home

(hoooome)

your number's out of service at least that's what they say
but i know that you forgot about me and you'd like to keep it that way
in the morning i'll be leaving for home
in 24 hours i'll be talking to you over the phone
got nothing to lose but myself
and i'm growing sick and tired of comparing you to everyone else
you fall through like the sand in a sieve
i need to know the answer coz i'm hanging by a thread as it is
