Dog-Eared Page - The Matches

I’m just a dog-eared page you turn back to

Where’s the place for me

When we’re both in love with you?

I can’t escape these friends

I’ve made since you left town

They throw redundant parties

Where I’m too often found

And while I sit and watch girls and boys

Trade views of new tattoos

I wonder if it’s too late to call your mom

And catch up on some news

She says you’ll be home soon for me —

And it’ll be just like you were never gone

I’ll try to be just some guy you’re getting on

But basically, we’re both in love with you

I’m just a dog-eared page you turn back to

Where’s the place for me

When we’re both in love with you?

I’ve got these «friends» in quotes

And girls* with asterisks

I watch the time whither

And fall from my wrist

Out on the porch Van Morrison

Is bleeding through the walls

I don’t think your roommate

Has been writing down my calls

She says you’ll be home soon for me —

And it’ll be just like you were never gone

I’ll try to be just some guy you’re getting on

But basically, we’re both in love with you

I’m just a dog-eared page you turn back to

Where’s the place for me

When we’re both in love with you?

You said the distance

Would make a difference

But it didn’t

And it’ll be just like you were never gone

I’ll try to be just some guy you’re getting on

But you and me, we’re both in love with you

I’m just a dog-eared page you turn back to

Where’s the place for me

When we’re both in love with you?

(4x) Where’s the place for me

When we’re both in love with you?
