Buildings Lyrics

In five minutes, or maybe two
there'd be one thing to do
He'd be waiting on the line
or else walk with her if he had the time

She got out her purse and took out her phone
and called him up early to see if he was home

but there's nobody here this time
it said, how could she be sure
that he didn't forget
because the buildings are too tall
but it split across the middle
then there's no building at all

she couldn't see a place
where a walk would make a difference
there's only so much that i can take
when you start talking business

why don't we let it all fall down today
and then see if we miss it
why don't we let it all fall down today
and then see if we miss it

she brushed her bangs from off her face
closed her eyes and sighed a lot
put the chair in its place
once again, he had forgot

she put the candle back in its drawer
the one she'd used some other time
and she waited for the sad to fade
and something else to fill her mind

because the buildings are too tall
but they split across the middle
and there's no building at all

no building at all
no building at all
no building at all
