Where do I go when the night swallows me?

I parked the car

And wallowed in the dark

All by myself.

I said I'd be home by ten,

But here I am,

I've never gone in

To the thing I left the house to come to,

But sat here alone

Two hours.

I didn't drink or smoke or chew,

But just as bad a sin,
I listened to the radio

Lost in a daze,

Fantasized the night away.

A month of Sundays alone with you,

I attended only

In my mind.
