"The Way His Collar Falls" lyrics

"The Way His Collar Falls"

Leif and I are on the train to New York
In car 1399
There's a guy with a quarter in his ear
And I've seen Leif only once in the past two months

His hair is sticking up a little in the front
Yeah, he's losing it just a bit
When I get home tonight, I'll miss him
In Hampshire, yeah

His glasses
The way he writes in purple pen
The way his collar falls to the left
Have you seen his ankles lately?

I know he's next to me
I feel his sweater here
But when I'm sleeping, it's only green sheets
And the hair down my legs

I think I'll write you, Leif
When I'm near Tuesday
Sometime before you go
And I'm back on the train

Leif and I are on the train to New York
In car 1399
There's a guy with a quarter in his ear
And I've seen Leif only once in the past two months

His hair is sticking up a little in the front
Yeah, he's losing it just a bit
When I get home tonight I'll miss him in Hampshire

His hair is sticking up a little in the front
Yeah, he's losing it just a bit
When I get home tonight, I'll miss him
