"Dial Tone Duet" lyrics

"Dial Tone Duet"

Old perfume in a heart shaped bottle
Scent as blue as a waltz in autumn
Next to you on the piano playing
Three-four time with our bodies swaying

That was then this is now
Silence stole our song somehow
Funny thing you're so close
But I'm here talking to a ghost

Trying to call
But there's nobody home
On my own, what to do
But duet with the sound of the dial tone?

China plates on the floor for sweeping
My heart breaks like a Willow weeping
Crimson lips stained of pomegranates
Calling spades while I'm chasing rabbits

That was then this is now
Silence stole our song somehow
Funny thing you're so close
But I'm here talking to a ghost

Trying to call
But there's nobody home
On my own, what to do
But duet with the sound of the dial tone?

Trying to call
But there's nobody home
On my own, what to do
But duet with the sound of the dial tone?
