Busted in Bellingham, waiting on a friend
watching the headlights through the mist and the rain
and i wouldn't stay if i was given a choice
but i'm cold and flat, just like the sound of your voice
when you promised to go straight
and i waited their for you on Kangaroo lake
Even the morning sun seems tired and cold
pick up a paperback just for something to hold
but the words aren't clear, and the language unkind
and i'm staring at those pages until i think i'm losing my mind
and the hours growing late
and i wish i could see you on Kangaroo lake
And to say this is easy is to say you don't know
and there's nothing to talk about
seeing life through your eyes
everything's black and white
well i was never that kind
Just give some kind of sign that your still alive
send me a picture, a postcard, just drop me a line
because i didn't know that this was our final goodbye
i should have seen, but i was barely getting by
and you don't negotiate
and i wish i could see you on Kangaroo Lake
