50

You were away enough to be anyone
and here enough to be real
and on the phone I decided
it didn't matter what you said
as long as you were like me
with your back against a wall
sitting on a bed

and as long as your words didn't matter
they were always the right ones
just don't ever let me see the place
you take your phone calls from.
