The Apartment

I've been known to buy an afternoon banana in a truckstop
 Toss the peel in the trash as I make my way across the parking lot
 You call me up sometimes
 You kick in with the subtle of potassium
 I want see you tonight
 But I'm just too far from home
 I've been known to buy keychains with your name in the morning in a gift shop
 I buy the ones with the state's license plates and it gives me a lift up
 You cross my mind so much
 I hear your voice in the pumping of gas
 I want see you tonight
 But I'm just too far from home
 I've been baptized by the wind
 As the sun set over Gila Bend
 And I've stood alone in the parking lot of possibilities
 I've been angry and sad
 I spent way too much time feelin stupid and mad
 Tonight I just want to come back to our apartment in the city
 I've been known to drunk dial you from a motel bathroom with the shower on
 I let the steam set the scene as my cell begins to power on
 You say you miss me so much
 You say my voice turns you on through the phone
 You're on my side of the bed
 But you're out there all alone.
