"San Francisco Payphone" lyrics
"San Francisco Payphone"
One year ago today I tossed away
A quarter that I should have saved
I faked a farewell fantasy and misbehaved
I never made an effort
My conscience went
After all the time a spent
Dollars that I dropped on you
Thought you'd say you missed me too
So here I am, a friend, in the end I meant
To disregarded that birthday card
Nailed upon your wall he sent
I meant to turn my eyes from everything
I shouldn't see
An oath I took, you kissed my cheek
Cried yourself to sleep
But never would you admit to me
I always laughed when you laughed
Cried when you cried
Danced when you danced
I lied
Laugh when you laugh
Cry when you cry
Dance when you dance
I lied
San Francisco payphone, so far from home
So many friends, and I'm alone
I faked a farewell fantasy, I lied
You bother me
My conscience gone
This conversation's dragging on
There was once upon a time when you would miss me too
So here I am, a friend, the end, I meant
To disregard that birthday card
Nailed upon your wall he sent
I meant to turn my eyes from everything
Never made a promise
An oath I took, I kissed your cheek
Cried myself to sleep
I won't admit that you see
I always laughed when you laughed
Cried when you cried
Danced when you danced
I lied
Laugh when you laugh
Cry when you cry
Dance when you dance
I lied
