Diesel Man Lyrics
I was on the corner phone to someone I'd known
About the only things that seemed important
Two corners of my life, this locked up empty night
And a gar skull I found on a beach in Texas
I praised the strength of men caught in the moment when
Deciding to forgive themselves their failures
Like this night of broken things, this song I tried to sing
The ashtray, and the piano lady's daughter
And someone in the phone knew everything I'd ever known
Hummed soundtracks to dreams I had forgotten
Things that we didn't have right; we argued half the night
Knowing we could not come any closer
I loved the telephone, talked to the dial tone
While people on the sidewalk hurried by me
About the only things that seemed important
Two corners of my life, this locked up empty night
And a gar skull I found on a beach in Texas
Deciding to forgive themselves their failures
Like this night of broken things, this song I tried to sing
The ashtray, and the piano lady's daughter
Hummed soundtracks to dreams I had forgotten
Things that we didn't have right; we argued half the night
Knowing we could not come any closer
I loved the telephone, talked to the dial tone
While people on the sidewalk hurried by me
