Oh Dear Louis

It was late in may or maybe it was June
Laying in the grass, the sky a light maroon
And I was in charge of everything you told me I should be
Exercising, philosophizing
Sober for three weeks
Then you went inside
It was too long a time

Oh dear Louis, I was in the yard
Oh dear Louis, I wasn't too far to hear you cry
I I I I, I

We were at a party by pullman square
And I was sick of hearing 'bout this guy's band
So I went to the porch to breath in all that isotopic air
Maybe you lost track of time
And maybe you just got too scared
You locked yourself in a room
The panic ensued

Oh dear Louis, I was just outside
Oh dear Louis, I wasn't too far to hear you cry
I I I I, I

Oh dear Louis, I'm always on the line
Oh dear Louis, I wasn't too far to hear you
Oh dear Louis, you're always on my mind
Oh dear Louis, I'm not too far to hear you cry
