i saw you in my dream last night you had your smile so white i thought your teeth were the stars advertising inread invented by teads your eyes they were like tiny rivers well it gave me the shivers when you looked right up at me we never got to say a goodbye we never sat down and cried and watched each others tears fall out so i never got a chance to tell you just exactly how well you carved your home in my heart you can stay here a while in this hotel heart people come and people go all the time i ll never let it get cold or dark or crowded i ll never turn out the light i bet you thought i d be much smaller well i ve gotten much taller my legs are like trees in the ground my branches are my tiny fingers well they ve gotten much bigger they reach out for so much more say you ll stay here a while in this hotel heart people come and people go every day i ll never let it get cold or dark or crowded i ll never give your spot away i like to think you still can hear me that you re listening clearly to all the words i start cause i never got a chance to tell you just exactly how well you carved your home in my heart
